DonM I am assuming Pirate ship deals direct with UPS and handles the claim but 🤔

    The package that went through Hawaii got delivered yesterday, on the holiday. They must have been trying to make amends for all the delay.

    DonM Who is paying? Pirate Ship or the carrier?

    UPS. PirateShip gathers the evidence and puts the claim in to UPS. Got the $ today. I'm out $25 because I just took the standard $100 insurance. They did refund me the $9 shipping cost as well.

      LBlack14 Apparently, you have the worst postal service system in the country, where you live.

      I quit using PS long ago. Too many hassles to get to website, then checking tracking daily. Might be cheaper, but not always, compared to PP Ship Station. And it is rare that I use USPS now. UPS may be a dollar higher, but it is only 6 blocks from my house.

      $24.88 Priority Mail through PS??.....whatya shipping... an f'n cow?? Even the $14.33 is out of hand. Even for a cow.😅
      I've shipped 10# bigass boxes Priority Mail to Hawaii for less than that...more than once.

          I sent injim a putter last week. I was told it would arrive on Wednesday. It didn’t arrive until Friday and he’s in a border state (Ky to In).

          LBlack14 long box surcharge. It won't ever make sense to ship USPS. Small box....USPS ground and UPS ground will be similar.

            I usually add 3 days to USPS tracking now. UPS has been doing well here except for the ripped open bag they dropped off Friday..no contents..

            Since switching to Pirate Ship.............adios USPS.

            Shipped a club from VA to SC.
            Dropped off at UPS @ 4 PM yesterday.
            Arrived today @ 3PM.
            Cost? $7 + change

            Sent 6 heads from MD to TX. 2 arrived. Filed a claim and had a check within a few days from USPS.
            Last year sent a package with FedEx to NJ. It took the scenic route via CA. In other words you never know, lol

              I just had my first price discrepancy between Pirateship and Shipstation. I will have to keep an eye on it, as I always use PS for a quote and when paid via PP, use Shipstation to pay for/print the label and.price has always been the same. Yesterday 2# box 48x6x5 was 7.07 PS and 8.81 SS. I've never actually used PS but I may start if that trend continues! UPS ground was the service.
