The USPS has delivered >99.8% of the mail I have ever sent/received, and lapses have been extraordinarily rare. I use FedEx quite a bit now, and they're fine. I do note that Overnight/Express offered by the USPS is significantly cheaper than FedEx, and in my anecdotal experience just as reliable.
That's because what you pay at the Post Office does not reflect the true cost of mailing and shipping. Of course, the USPS doesn't pull that money out of thin air--our federal tax dollars have to be spent to make up the difference.
And my challenge remains. Go to the Post Office at 4:30pm and tell me how that experience works out for you. Then go to a FedEx or UPS store.
