Stunt News First Class Delivery Delay
« on: March 08, 2006, 05:03:34 PM »
The Mar/Apr 2006 First Class issue of SN was given to the USPS in Merrifield VA on 27 Feb 2006. I received mine yesterday, 7 March 2006, after less than a 20 mile trip over 7 working days. I investigated why First Class magazines are slower than First Class mail and found out that the USPS implements a policy to deliver all periodicals on a flow managed basis and subsequently First Class magazines are not guaranteed delivery in 3-4 days as First Class letters are. That is why your Jan/Feb 2006 issue was late and why we are suffering the same fate with the Mar/Apr 2006 issue.

I am contemplating several work arounds on this with my Arlington VA printer/publisher and we may have a way to get the newsletter to the membership on a more timely basis. But, I cannot do anything about the USPS periodical policy.

Thank you,

Tom McClain :-\

How would I get a copy of Stunt News?  Is it an AMA or PAMPA publication for members only?
