    Yea..its somewhere...

    Tracking shows it leaving Cumming PO in Atlanta..Feb 24th...
    ...then it vanishes.

    Its not like it fell down the back of a sorting desk/machine....

    ...and it not like insurance can easily replace it.

    I feel ya Jo...
    When I bought my 3/4" red Crosby shackles 2 yrs ago, I received a box pretty much destroyed and it had only 2 D-rings....no pins....and a USPS note that said it broke open in transit and they're sorry, blah blah blah. OK, well, where are those 2 red pins...they're NOT small, they're NOT light...where did they go??
    I figured they must have some type of "lost & found"....right?....um.....no....
    Luckily the vendor offered to send me 2 more complete 3/4" shackles....
    ....and your item is bigger, much heavier...and not easily replaced.
    Good luck, sometimes it takes a while for them to route stray orphans back to the right Post Office....maybe it will show up....

    That's why you should always insist on hand delivery from the vendor.

    USPS is horrible. I bought a Trooper dash from a guy on the Planet. He sent it USPS. I waited. I waited. I started getting nervous. I waited some more. Finally, I emailed the guy I bought the dash from. He replied and said he will look into it.

    A few hours later, he emails back and said he called his local USPS and tried to track it via the insurance slip. They told him the box was sitting at my local post office. This is like 3 weeks after he sent it to me, mind you. Also note, that I get all my mail delivered to my UPS Store box. This way, there is always someone to accept my packages and I don't have to give strangers my home address ever. Anyway, I go down to the post office, I explain to the lady that they should have a LARGE BOX for me there. She goes in the back for a while and then appears with the box.

    I ask her, "why was this not delivered?" She says, "oh, we made a delivery attempt to your apartment, didn't you get it?" I said, "first of all, I do not live in an apartment, and since when do you guys leave delivery attempt slips at UPS Store addresses? You're lying!" I was about to lay into her heavy, just as the manager overheard the conversation and came out and apologized. The manager told me, "your box got shoved into a corner and forgotten, our mistake."

    Wow, a 5' tall box got shoved into a corner and got overlooked.

    If you want more stories to feel better, just let me know, I can provide. I hope your box shows up soon, Jo.
