I saw the Video on You Tube and I truly understand Why there are so many 1's.
We live almost 1000 miles away and believe you me...All the USPS locations are getting to be the same way.
I have in my email where they keep saying my package was in a parcel locker....it took almost 5 days for it to actually show up there.
And I received another one the Very Next Day.
