Leaving aside potential legibility issues:

Most people would not want their home address posted on a public Internet forum.

The address is perfectly legible. A Postal Service supervisor said there is something going on with the tracking number label that is causing all of this. Something happened to the bar code after the package was received at the Post Office.

Hopefully the cards show up, James.

I bought a pristine 1972/73 Topps Hockey display box from a Canadian seller last year from a Facebook group. He shipped the box and it made it all the way to Salt Lake City to a post office two miles from where I work. After that it bounced back and forth about twenty-five times between five different post office locations around Utah. I finally tracked it down in Cedar City Utah PO where a lady pulled the package and had it in hand. She said there was an issue with the bar code and she would fix it and forward it back to Salt Lake. As it turns out, instead of just printing a new label her idea of fixing the problem was to just put a blank label over the bar code and ship it back to Salt Lake City. From that point the package had no tracking and was never delivered or never had another scan. When I complained the PO told me to file a claim with Canada Post. Canada Post basically told the seller to pound sand as the package was lost due to an error the US PO created. After a month of going back and forth trying to get a refund I just ate the loss and moved on.

So the postal workers just shrug and allow a computer scanning glitch to rule the roost. The mind boggles....
