After filing a claim and fighting with the post office over a loss claim I'm
not enthusiastic with USPS service. I guess my WWII British Wirecutters
are probably in the same place that Joe's lug wrench is. I don't think that
the Post Office even looks when they have a claim filed. It looks like an
item like a lug wrench or wirecutters would show up someplace. If the item
is over about 4 lbs, UPS seems to be the better alternative.
