Actually had this happen to me with a pair of tennis shoes with UPS.

Thoughts?

I hope the OP got good news today and the discussion is moot.

Went to the post office this morning twice and left my information again. In both cases the station manager did not contact me nor was I able to see him again. I had to leave to go to Connecticut to handle family business, so I'm hoping that by the time tomorrow comes around and I get back to NY the package is in my mailbox.

The Purchase with tax came in just shy of 750, $734 to be precise. If the above scenario doesn't occur, then I'm making a last ditch effort and going to the post office as many times as I have to on Monday.

It's a 53 Bowman Color Mantle, it's a pretty available card, and while it only clocked in at a PSA 2.5, the eye appeal IMO exceeded the grade. It's one thing if this was a purchase from a big corporation that I could just order one again at the drop of a hat. However that's not the case. I think it also doesn't help that the USPS is grossly incompetent and cannot properly communicate with its customers.

I am changing my tune a bit from my previous post. If the seller did not add insurance to a sale of almost $750 (or at least signature confirmation) he deserves to have a request from the buyer for eBay to step in and help him. I insure every package over $200.

Instead of going to the PO file a claim on line with USPS. I did this and had great results. The package eventually, after hearing from the supervisor at the PO where the error took place, got to me.

Exactly. Most sellers do not understand that insurance is more them than it is for the buyer.

Default Problem with USPS Delivery

I'm also having a problem with a delivery. On June 15th I scheduled a pick up of a 3-day Priority Mail package of 2-2009 Topps American Heritage sets. It was picked up with another package on the 16th. Here's where the fun begins.

The second package was scanned immediately and delivered in three days time.

The Priority Mail package wasn't scanned into the system at its point of origin until June 21st, whereupon it went to the regional distribution center later that day.

The package disappears once again until June 25th when I was informed that it was en route to its destination. A separate email listed June 26th as its possible date of arrival.

The package didn't arrive on the 26th or 27th and the tracking information still shows that it's "in route."

I usually have great success using USPS, but something seems to have gone haywire.

Is your package headed for one of the new hot spots around the country...The Northeast, Colorado and especially Michigan had a lot of mail delays at the beginning a few months ago.
