Today's Mail Surprise

I have been waiting on an order from Red Aspen since mid January. Red Aspen sells press on nails, makeup and skincare. I had ordered several pair of nails from a friend who is a Red Aspen consultant that were on closeout sale on January 9th. I received a confirmation in my email on January 10th that the order had been received.
I was hoping to get this order in before my daughter's wedding on January 25th because I was doubting the first pair I had purchased. But, the 25th came and went and my order had still not arrived. My first order with them arrived in 7-8 days, so I asked my friend if she could check on the order.
I got a tracking number and found that the order had been shipped and had arrived in Boise, ID on January 14th. It then arrived in Jackson, MS on January 26th. And it sat and sat and sat there. I usually get things 2 days after the Jackson, MS arrival and that didn't happen this time and no updates were posted.
So guess what showed up today? Yep, my package! Which nail dash set is your favorite? I live the bright pink best I think.
I feel bad because my friend put in for a replacement shipment day before yesterday because of the long delay. This is the longest delay I have had for an online shipment in quite some time.
Have you been getting your online shopping orders on time? Happy with the USPS service or not?

I like the first ones..whatever they are..greenish are they?
No I am not getting stuff on time anymore.
It seems to be a widespread issue these days.

They're all pretty, the pink one surely stands out the most! 
Orders are usually on time except the few from China, such as Temu. I also had a pack of beauty products delayed a while ago, there was a Black Friday sale so I suppose that was why it took a while. Eventually it arrived but the foundation didn't work well for my skin, I got some irritation. The other items were fine, but that failure of a foundation was the most expensive of them all.

I live in a gated village and if orders are delivered before 6am, the drivers have been just throwing the parcels through the gate so that's been creating a bit of angst. I wouldn't laugh if I was involved I'm sure but I don't buy much online.

That's a really long wait. I would get all my orders in time. Just recently one jeans for my daughter was delayed. The customer care called and apologized on the delivery day and said the shipment is coming from some place in the US and is facing some issues there. I finally received it this Monday, something that was due on 24 January. But professional of them to call me and apologize for it.
