I try to stay away from USPS as much as possible. I typically use FedEx or UPS since they’re more reliable and even they have their issues at times.
You’re not alone man. It sucks but here’s hoping that you get your stuff back quickly
It's just a return, but it factors into my prize

Her favorite sleeping position is flopped over like that. It’s how you know she’s comfy. She’s more careful about it now though because the younger smaller cat likes to launch sneak attacks....
my parent's chocolate lab also love to sleep on his back on the couch Comfortable and trusting DING DING DING! We have a winner! This is the reason why I carry heavy grade blade lightsabers with me while I walk alone at night. Better paranoid than dead.
Let us know if you make the news one day. Can't wait to read the headline "Thugs sent to hospital by Jedi"

I always loved to see that dog come on the couch and take a tiny spot in the corner and then progressively spread until he took most of the available space (or even pushed me aside ) and rolling on his back. Best to be prepared indeed. I only carry my saber(s) when I cross the city for my Lightsaber class once a week. Otherwise I only take it across the street to the woods and spin a little. But I suppose my city is much safer. There are only a few spots that I tend to avoid crossing at night especially on weekends. Then again, being a man changes things. Good looking girls are often more worried walking around at night (with good reason as some men can be very ill-behaved).

I take my sabers to and from work so that I can practice in between and people tend to stare at it quite a bit. With that said, it's a good deterrent for women to have especially walking around alone and to combat those that have ill intentions.

Regarding the shipping, I live in Canada and I would rather ship anything from the US, not just sabers, by post than by courier. If it comes by post I usually pay my shipping and get it fairly quickly if it comes by courier it takes almost a week longer and I usually get hit for "brokerage fees" that are close to the same as I paid for shipping in the first place. I have literally shipped a $10 dollar item and ended up paying $10 shipping and $20 brokerage. I had to special order a fencing jacket as no one up here carries my size, I paid 90 for the jacket 40 something for shipping and another 40 something for fedex brokerage fees. Anyway just my experience.

Jedi Relmeob had a story (years ago, in 2012 or 2013) about how he was in a parking lot with his saber, and a gentleman came up and was curious about seeing it. The gentleman then attempted to rob him, and Rel had to put his martial arts training into effect. The gentleman was not happy with these results. Imagine if it was a set of Broods... Tonfa are not your friends when you attempt to take them from their owner...

Great story there, ed. Agreed, try to rob someone, anyone with a saber. They are made for duels and spins and I know from experience that they hurt pretty bad. I bet that guy started to re-think his life choices

I hate having to randomly reset all my profile settings, such as my avatar and signature... I got the signature image back, but the avatar is a place holder until I can go find my original and fix it...
not fun at 6 am... too much like crap I have to do at work... but I'm off today...
