    I ordered three things, three independent orders off ebay that were sent USPS, all supposed to be delivered the end of last week or over last weekend, neither showed movement. I notified two sellers that I never got their items, one refunded my money (ordered the same item Amazon next day and already have it), one hasn't. The third was a high dollar item that showed it made it to Charlotte Monday and then nothing but "delayed'.

    Seems to be about average for USPS lately.

    USPS has been annoying, but on the date they said it would be.
    FedEx on the other hand sent me out for delivery emails for 2 weeks without actually delivering anything. When I called, they assured me that it would be delivered the next day. The same person couldn't answer why that day was any different from every other day they didn't deliver it.

    I also had FedEx claim they delivered something at a particular time, but the security cameras proved otherwise.

    Last week I ordered 2 things at different times from same company. FedEx was shipped first and delayed twice. USPS was shipped 2 days later and both packages were delivered on the same day.

    Motion also has a part from a plane in the dents and dings section where FedEx neatly punched a hole through the box.

    Except for the last bit, all these events have happened in the last three months

    So yeah... FedEx

    wow, I know it isn't Motion. Thanks for checking. This is the unexpected and excellent CS that keeps me coming back to motion

    All these delivery companies are still using Covid as excuses for delays, such BS!

    FedEx has been terrible here recently.

    Spare parts are in a different container arriving about a week after the the plane. Once that arrives, it will take us about a week to put all the parts away so I'd expect to see the PJ50 spare parts online (and in stock) in about 2 weeks.

    Keeping us up to date in a professional polite manner is why my hobby dollars go to Motion. Thanks Tom!
