Has anyone else ever had problems with Express Mail? I sent a money order to my sister-in-law on Friday using Express Mail, and it still hasn't arrived even though it was "guaranteed" to arrive by noon on Saturday. The post office is also supposed to deliver Express Mail on Sunday, and today, even though it's a holiday. There is no sign of its arrival at the other end, and the last trace of it in their tracking system is at the Express Mail facility here in Seattle.
Has this happened to anyone else? If it did, did your shipment show up eventually or just become lost in the system? I'm worried because it's a money order, and while I can (supposedly) get my money back if it's lost or stolen, she needs it a.s.a.p.
Along the same lines, have you ever gotten a refund from USPS if a money order they issued is lost or stolen?

You're right, it says on the back of the Express Mail receipt that postage can be refunded if it doesn't arrive on time. I don't care so much about that as about the darned thing getting there, though.
