Funny you should say that: While in Zhuhai, Guangdong, China on business the first week of February 2014, I mailed two post cards to my wife, and two to friends. Of those 4 cards, NONE have shown up in the USA. I'm not doing so well with China Post this month, no matter the fact that it cost less than $1 US to mail each of those post cards.

I have however received two EBay orders I made since returning to the USA which originated from nearby city of Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. I did technically mail the missing post cards during Chinese New Year holida, but this is ridiculous. The post cards were stamped Par Avion just like my EBay packages.
