Ok I've ordered games for 20+ years from dozens of companies/shops/individuals. I'm in Pa and usually packages take 4-14 days, sometimes even longer. Last two orders have been from two different companies in or near Seattle. These orders are taking 24 hours to reach Pa. and 2-3 days to reach me. Did someone at the USPS find a magic lamp? Now I'm not complaining...just wondering how they've speed up there transport 400% or better? Is the pipeline from the northwest to the northeast faster then elsewhere?

I've receive UPS and FedEx shipments from California to Indiana in 3 days. It sounds more like the distribution net in PA is bad for whichever company you're using.

I really haven't noted any difference in shipping times between USPS and UPS/FedEx.
