hello patricia,

thank you for your words. the german state parcel service has a licence with a condition. for inner country postal service more than 50% need to be delivered after 24 hours and 99% after 48 hours. when i was a child a post man was something like a policeman and highly respected person in the city, village...

now we experience a delivery time between 10-14 days INSIDE of germany from north to south.

also i have still after 14 days more than 80% not confirmed. i see and agree, all your arguments are valid. holidays, bad weather conditions and so on. but if i would pay for 100% and only 30% are delivered... its sad.

this was one reason to see the reality of postal services in these times. later we can think about how to re-act.

but again. thanks for your good vibes. we keep on going. mail art is a wonderful tool to connect.

all the best

juan

For me, I never post but send a message receiv

The average travel time for postal mail from Germany to the USA is typically around 10-14 business days when using standard First Class International mail services; however, this can vary depending on the specific destination within the USA and customs processing times.

ed .My joy comes from creating and sending, sometimes it doesn't get delivered or other times get returned to me.

I am wishing you 100% delivery and response. Patience.
