RM 2nd class delivered in 8 hours!!??!!

This morning I posted a small parcel 2nd class at 11.30am.
I have just got a feedback from him - that is just 8 hours after I posted.
Would he have received it? Or was the feedback meant for some other item he has received? Dare I ask?

    It's possible, has happened to me in the past, also possible that they were wrong.

    I had a 2nd class parcel delivered same day once, but the recipient was only 6 miles away!

    I had feedback for an item - comments that were specific to the item - that was left less than 24 hours after posting 2nd Class. It's happened before, too.

    2nd Class can be delivered next day, but it is not "guaranteed". It is the relative certainty of next day delivery that you are paying for with first class.

    Anything is possible!


    Recently I have had 2nd class received next day and 1st class taking a week.


    I suppose it depends on how busy they are in any particular area.
