You leave my hometown sorting facility alone! Why just last week I won something off Ebay and I was a little sad that they had it for mere hours before getting it out. I barely had any time to wonder what things it could be doing in town.

I have a card that passed through Kearny and arrived in Boston today. Most recent info said it will arrive tomorrow. Maybe your card was in the same sort but didn't get scanned? Fingers crossed!

.....or maybe you will receive Peter’s card.:eek:

If it did, I would have skipped the middle man and delivered it to Peter myself. :) Only my card was delivered.

My package has not tracked again today. LOL. The void.

It had a layover.

Great town for Portuguese food. Mail not so much.

We should have a net54 deliver pool to see which will arrive first.

Here's what USPS.com says:
"The package is delayed and will not be delivered by the expected delivery date. An updated delivery date will be provided when available. The item is currently in transit to the destination as of January 12, 2018 at 12:51 pm. It is on its way to BRONX, NY 10463."

They're at it again. Last two packages, instead of going from Kearny to New Brunswick, have made detours to Montclair and Mendham respectively, with that 'missent' designation in the tracking. I don't normally bash the USPS, but c'mon

I knew what this thread was about before I even opened it up! Been there and done that!

Add me to the package race -- check out this mess (btw -- going back and forth from CA to GA isn't good -- my "destination" is Los Angeles . . . ):

I feel your pain, but this package has never been to Kearny and this the Kearny thread. This post should be in the Los Angeles black hole thread.

Something on the package, address, zip code, bar code or whatever is being scanned in LA as a package destined to GA. When scanned in GA, a different result occurs and the package is returned to LA. This is all the result of machine scanning and sorting. It is my understanding that a human being has to intervene to interrupt this game of sorting machine ping pong. Finding such an individual in the Los Angeles Distribution center is the problem for which I have no answer.

My favorite was a certified letter I sent from Boston to LA. It took two months to get there. It literally disappeared for 6 weeks, then suddenly reemerged in LA. From there, it pinged back and forth multiple times between LA and West Sacramento. It then got delivered to the wrong address -- not even close -- but somehow the post office was able to tell me where it was and I actually called that business and had the misrecipient hold it until the real recipient could go pick it up.

PS it's an exercise in futility to try to call a physical post office in downtown LA.

It's good it was certified.
