Be patient. That has happened to me, and the next day the item arrives at my door. Basically, their tracking system is totally screwed up because they don't know how to use it.

Saw this poster at a clients plant, thought it was a bit funny how they are blowing away the roadie on a climb, and on singlespeeds no less.

Im hoping thats whats going on. I called and filed a claim.
Its my gage+desoto package and if it gets lost I dont think G+D has more stock to replace it with.

My missing Boards of Canada LP, marked as "delivered" 13 days ago, never arrived. Amazon overnighted a new one so I've been made whole but my faith in the USPS is shaken.

Filing a claim may have delayed it even more. In most cases the sender needs to file a claim (if the package was insured in the first place), not the recipient.

Today I hung out at the local fixed shop catching up with the guy who owns it and in came a guy on a presto trying to sell a mildly cosmetically beat up nitto jag that was too long for him. Owner tells him his usual I can't make money from selling used parts speech and I jokingly say I'll give you $5 for it and it was a done deal. $5 for a jag, not bad.

Maybe they should have spent less money sponsoring the US Postal Team and LA, and more on doing their actual jobs.

TejanoTrackie 06-26-13 01:40 PM

Damnit, I just got an email update from Universal Cycles that part of my order is shipping via USPS. Normally, they use UPS ground.

work party today at lunch to celebrate the end of a big push that me and my supervisor just finished up.... if you buy a certain nanoparticle standard from NIST now as a reference material it really came from us, and by us I mean the company I work for, and by the company I work for I mean: me.

there has been bbq, pizza, salads, frisbee, batchee ball (spell?), and not to mention im three IPAs deep.

Ya im not getting any more work done today :)

Then a cat 1 in sperm helmet passes you in full sperm kit...then what happens...you get the geared bike out and put the skin suit on the next day.

Want one of those so bad. Super jelly :p

i got the small one that's super cheap but it's a much needed replacement for my ancient(2003) 17" LCD ultrasharp. the color rendition is immediately apparent and i have them set up side by side but the old one is so yellow and awful i might not be able to stand it. and the real estate on the new 23" is more than adequate for everything i do so...

It would have been nice if the person helping would have mentioned that. (the part about it probably delaying everything) She did say that if it is completely lost I would have to contact the sender to file a claim. Idk if what I did was actually filing a claim but she did give me a case number to give to the sender. She said if I dont get my package by tomorrow or an answer its probably lost or delivered to the wrong person.
