T201 Ed Walsh Missing in mail?

I would just give it some more time, chances are it will show up.

My personal experience is the PO has sucked really bad for almost a year now. The strange thing is if I send/receive a card in a PWE or with the free tracking they give you it shows up like clock work. Now if it has a paid tracking # there will be a 2-4 week delay over 90% of the time. Very strange but true.

Anthony, it is my understanding that, unless there is a specific agreement to the contrary, an eBay seller is responsible for loss/damage until the item is received by the eBay purchaser. Hence, I don't think you need to worry, unless you don't take action within the prescribed time period. If I'm wrong about this, I'm sure someone will set me straight.

I had one like that recently. Shipped with tracking, scanned into the system, scanned out of the area. Two weeks of no updates.

Then right about the time I was going to call someone it shows as scanned into town and out for delivery.

Apparently nobody between the shipping location and here could be bothered to scan it.

Update, looks like I am good with the card. Tracking finally updated 10 days later and said it is out for delivery today. Funny how when stuff like this happens after you make a few phone calls the thing is right at your door the next day. So when I get home from work today I should have the card sitting in my mail box.

Good news. Unfortunately this is becoming more and more common then it used to be.

seems like it, and its not the sellers fault in most cases. though I recently sold a card on ebay to a real winner though who was in Michigan and was asking where his card was 2 days after he paid for it. He opened a case 5 days later and ebay ruled in my favor and kicked him off ebay, name was cabby2014 I believe and he is back on there with a new ebay name. guy was weird saying he was going to call his cousin the cop on me about a $3 card. I hate to message sellers about where the card is esp when they put a tracking # on it. Still will leave the seller 5 stars

I'm glad your card isn't lost Anthony. That can be stressful. And its good of you to still leave 5 stars since the dealer did everything correctly.

well here is a little story that will make you think the next time you ship something. I did a deal with a good board member this year. Item was paid for right away and I shipped it the next day. He is in the military and provided me with an APO address. I told him I had never shipped an item to a military address before and was a little hesitant. but I did. I put tracking on it and told him the item was sent. Sent him the tracking #. He told me it takes 3-4 weeks to get the item and not to worry. Well I checked the tracking # about 10 days in and tracking says it was delivered! Wow I thought thats great. Well 2 weeks later I get an email from our board member asking me if I sent the item ,I said yes and I said I gave you the tracking #. He asked me where I sent it, and I said I sent it to the address you provided me. Well to make a long story short 3 months later he himself had to track the package down in Turkey (I had no idea where it went as that isnt in the address) and have a friend send it to him at the new address he was at now! Still packed as I sent it and to the address he provided me with! My lesson here is I will never ship an item to a military APO FPO address ever again! Item was $300+piece. I will ship the item to a relative in the states and they can forward it to the person in the military.
lesson learned and it wont happen to me again.
