This is from a January 30 newsletter (Robrt's Anime Corner Store): "Last week I talked about how USPS is changing their first scan policy -- not scanning accepted parcels until they get to the first sort center. I wanted to mention that we've also noticed another US Postal trend where a parcel may get scanned as 'delivered' the day before it actually goes out for delivery. I think some of these are mis-scans, and some of these are carriers trying to economize their route time by not having to actually scan each parcel when it's delivered. ... 70% of the time these parcels end up being delivered the next day."
