Would you worry

Brock,

Seems kind of strange that they wouldn't give you a tracking number. I would say get that info first, and proceed from there.

Hope everything turns out in your favor. Let us know how it goes.

Yes, I would worry, especially if they are being evasive about giving you the tracking info. If it were me in the AH's position, the first thing I would do would be to look up the tracking so I could tell you, "It was left on your porch on xxx date." or "UPS is showing the package as being in Miami. Check with them to see what is going on." No UPS shipment from SC to Boston should take 2 weeks to get there under normal circumstances (though as I type this, I am reminding myself that there was some serious weather on the east cost recently), but even if there were extenuating circumstances that delayed the package(s), they would need to give you those tracking numbers so that you can follow up with UPS and see where the issue is.

It may also be that they hadn't actually shipped your stuff yet, which would also explain why they couldn't give you the tracking numbers, but brings up another issue of them lying to you outright in saying they had.

I've had a couple of instances where a package took extra time in shipment but finally arrived. So there is hope.

i hope it arrives

As I said, there are legitimate reasons that the package could be delayed. That's not the part I would worry about. What I would worry about is any seller who tells you they shipped your stuff via UPS but can't or won't give you a tracking number. It's not like USPS where a package can be shipped with or without tracking. If UPS shipped it, there is a tracking number.

Well I called the auction house, they said it actually went out USPS and they checked in on it last week. Supposedly they were just sitting at the post office and the post office never sent them out.

Sounds like BS to me. They should provide you with a USPS tracking number. If you need help I will try to track it for you.
