Three hours later-letter carrier at the door with the package. USPS...always an adventure.
I think that these express packets travel through a separate channel, but once they are near you it's very quick. I have had some international packages this way and there is a completely different truck with a completely different guy who show up at completely different times than the normal delivery person.
They seem to be more like a courier service - come up to my office in my building just like the express ups/fedex instead of leaving it with the internal delivery guys. They also seem to always be quite in a hurry.

It doesn't seem to mattered in your case but if something takes longer than it should I've found it useful to ask USPS to look for it, after all they've got it and they have all the tracking even the stuff that's just internal and doesn't show up in the online tracking tool.

Enjoy your razor.
