Postal Service users upset over bulk mail delays
Timothy J. Wagner, a grocery store owner who depends heavily on advertising through bulk mail,
has a problem with the U. S. Postal Service. Wagner, who owns the Super Saver market on
Broadway, said he dropped off slingers advertising a Valentine’s Day sale at the Buffalo bulk
mail center in late January.
But many of the 250 customers he was targeting didn’t receive the slingers until late February
— well after the Feb. 14 holiday.
“All of the customers I’m mailing to live no more than three or four miles from the William
Street [mail processing center]. It shouldn’t take more than two or three days to get to
them,” Wagner said. “I’ve had situations where it took my mail six, seven and eight days
to reach customers, and one time, it took a month.”
