I think it's a universal thing, not just Jamaican. I mailed some stuff to Egypt in Nov and it's still not there, but then, something I mailed in Sept. only got there mid-January. Postal systems employ people, and sometimes we mess up! It happens! Canada and the U.S. have great postal systems, compared to other countries - but a lot of our mail goes to those other countries! You know? Returns always take longer - they spend a lot of time and energy trying to deliver the piece to the original destination; when it's being returned, it's kind of de-prioritized.
