I know we all see it reported here every time the postal service messes up, but let's give them a little credit for the thousands of transactions they get done right. The service is really a bargain.. they deliver a chip in a padded envelope anywhere in the US for only 49 cents.. to Canada for 72 cents.. and even to Europe and Australia for only 92 cents! I was really impressed with the postal service today. Two days ago I won a $5 Hot August Nights chip on eBay for $3.03.. I paid by PayPal.. the seller shipped it yesterday.. and it arrived today. 1 day shipping for First class mail! That's a lot better than the 10 to 15 day service Charles gets. Service just must be better here in Northern CA.

I also noticed at the post office the other day that the new Priority Mail address labels now have "Priority Mail" printed in the background all across them.. that should end that ethical dilemna.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
