The wife purchased a needlepoint belt canvas to sew for the eldest son for his 21st birthday. The hand-painted canvas was $150 and the thread was another $80. I would say there was at least 40 hours of time to do her thing.

She sent it off to get finished, insured for $300 and guess what... It's lost. It has been out for delivery since 3/23.

She has the postage receipt, but the post office in Palm Beach will not answer their phone. Any time of day, it rings for 10 minutes straight. The local folks are no help either.

What is the next step????

Thanks

Report to Postal inspectors?

I don't work for the USPS but just spent 1.5 hours on the phone with them today. Call 1-800-275-8777 and give them your tracking info. I was told the packages have a GPS tracking when they are scanned so they should be able to track/scan where the package is.

Purchased a plain large sebenza on bladeforums, it was shipped internationally. Has showed it has been at my local distribution center since 3/26, so I finally got in touch with someone over there. Turns out my mail carrier's truck burned to the ground, with my f'ing knife in it, last week. Now to try and get the seller to work out insurance from his international carrier. Good times.

Your mail carrier must have wanted that knife (or some other item) real bad to burn a truck up....
