I've lost two. One got under the inside box flap when I took a bunch of stuff to the post office. But the buyer was just plain nasty, and had left me a negative without even contacting me about a problem. It was a $3 old weightwatchers brochure... Once I found it, I figured eh, whatever. Put it back in the pile to age another few decades. I did change how I handled the packages.


The other one was an item I had in my store and totally misplaced after 3-4 months. Someone bought it and I couldn't find it. Lots of apologies, refunded, and had hunted for it for a couple days.
The buyer was understanding, and pretty nice about it all. I found the stuff almost a year later, I checked to see if she was still interested and in the same place and just sent it to her for free, along with a couple other ones from the same series. (Disney lenticular postcards)
