My purpose for posting this is to prevent others from having to learn the hard way.
COVID has apparently put fulfillment of such orders on the (way) back burner.
I ordered (online) some Priority Mail Boxes about 6 weeks ago, but they haven't showed up.
I reordered about 8 days ago and decided to pay more attention this time. I saved the email with the Order Number.
Today I called USPS Customer Care (800-275-8777) and, after navigating the automated system, picked the "Order Free Shipping Supplies" option.
Then selected the "Check Order Status" option, which connected me to a human being.
Based on the background noise, my guess is she was working from home.
Anyway, she found my order and indicated there was no progress. She said she would flag the order for "expedite" and that would get it done.
She also indicated that, next time, I should call two days after I order.
So, ordering online isn't sufficient to get supply orders actually delivered, at least where I am.
You may need to phone and tell them you were serious.
Good Luck.
