Rande, glad you finally received your package. Might have been delivered to the wrong home and lucky that person dropped it off where it belongs :cheers: :cheers:
KEEP ON PUFFING!!!
Ya maybe. Or the carrier scanned it delivered too soon, or realised their mistake of a wrong delivery and re-delivered it, or a dozen other reasons.
In all my years of having deliveries there's only been one time that the goods were never accounted for, and that was UPS. Unfortunately there, the shipper didn't retain the shipping info so it couldn't be tracked. He did make good on resending it though, at his great expense!
I've read many accounts of mis-delivery/lost delivery/stolen delivery, etc over the years by both USPS and UPS. Fortunately I've had pretty positive experiences for the most part. Which is why I panicked yesterday!
A few years ago, I received a rather large box from UPS. Found it on my front steps, and knowing that I hadn't ordered anything found that the address label was for someone else in our 'hood with a similar address. Fortunately I found them on a google search and promptly delivered the box personally. So schmidt can and will happen.
Anyway, all's well that end well. And I won't let this little episode erode my faith in Amazon since it was obviously the carrier's fault.
Cheers,
RR
