I've used them twice with no problems. However, it is surprising that they would choose to use USPS reg 1st class mail for items that can be quite expensive. I doubt most people would object to spending $5 or whatever for a UPS or Fedex package. 1st class mail gets lost from time to time, and generally my experience is it's reliable but less so than the other alternatives.
From what I recall they used delivery confirmation, which gives about the same info as the tracking from the other companies. And those other companies lose/delay/misplace/send to the Bermuda Triangle packages just as often as the post office does!
UCT has their procedures, and they help people out.
