Don't use 1st class?

I send all my books I sell on Amazon by first class within 24 hours. I feel it is better customer service.0

I'd go for first class personally to be safe, as you never seem to know how long it's going to take. could be my location though, up in the north east of scotland.26/09/2017 - Started comping again. Wins so far: 1!

I always use first class. It usually gets there within 2 days, although not always. Second class takes ages in my experience. I use it to send stuff to friends and it often takes 1-2 weeks!0

i used to live on skye and i still found that packages sent 2nd class often got there in the same time as first class
i only send first class if i messed up and didn't get the package out as soon as i should have or if it's over the second class weight limit
i very often send things second class at 16:30 on a wednesday (for example) and the next afternoon i have my feedback for it saying what quick delivery ive provided!
i live in edinburgh now so i'm sure that helps but it didn't save me any time when i lived on skye to send things first class which is why i stopped paying for it in the first placefounder of Frugal Genius UK (Yahoo Groups)0
