I'd rather strongly suggest you not us the USPS period. In the last 6 months or so they've flat out lost 4 items either destined to or shipped by me, and one item apparently (according to the tracking web site) sat in a sorting facility in Utah for nearly a month before magically showing up. Glad it wasn't perishable. KJ
