National deliveries
In advance, be aware that for national delivery, currently, if you purchase a product through the normal postal service, the delivery time can take up to 30 calendar days.
Furthermore, if you request a delivery with a maximum period of one week, the period (of course) will be seven calendar days.
Additionally, you can also have express shipping that guarantees delivery in a maximum of 7 calendar days.
Finally, there is also the Sedex option, which guarantees a delivery time of up to 24 hours.
Items leaving from abroad
Orders placed in international stores have different delivery times. Currently, Prime Express delivers a product approximately 12 business days after it arrives in Brazil.
That is, after its release by the Federal Revenue Service. Small registered orders have a longer period, which is up to 40 business days.
As well, small simple orders also have a deadline of up to 40 business days after release by the IRS. However, unlike the previous delivery, it does not have any type of tracking.
It is worth noting that orders coming from the interior usually take around 20 days to arrive in Brazil.
Nowadays, most international orders originate from China (about 80% of them).
Why do some people dream of privatizing the Post Office?
While you know how long it takes for a package to arrive after it has been posted at the Post Office, understand a little more about why some people dream of privatizing the Post Office, check it out.
Termination of monopoly
One of the main arguments of those who want to privatize this company is the end of the monopoly. In other words, there will be more companies making deliveries and this guarantees free competition.
This therefore generates (in most cases) better service provision.
Guarantee of greater efficiency
From the same point of view, the more companies compete with each other, the greater the efficiency and agility.
Since people will have the freedom to choose which company they want to make their deliveries.
More supervision and control of the work provided
Furthermore, private companies tend to take oversight seriously and also carry out performance evaluations periodically.
Currently, in the public service, poor service or poor service provision often results in nothing.
In private companies, the system is very different. Therefore, if you don't produce, consequently, you won't stay within the company.
Always be careful before shopping online
Before we end our post today, we would like to give you some suggestions so that you don't have any problems when shopping online:
- First of all, it is essential that you purchase products from reputable stores with a good reputation. Therefore, always check the opinions of other users of that store and only buy from truly safe places;
- Additionally, make sure that the website or application has an SSL certificate, meaning that it has data security and is a reliable virtual environment. This ensures that your personal and payment information will be secure and cannot be used by third parties;
- Finally, be careful with promotions that are too good to be true and opportunities that are too advantageous. Unfortunately, (especially in times of crisis) many people take advantage of the good faith of others and offer promotions that do not exist. This can cause great inconvenience and even financial loss for you.
