In the past I have read on different websites and blogs on what I call horror stories about packages being lost or even been dropped off the end of the earth, which is not true. When a package is late getting to a buyer, most likely the package was accidentally misrouted. Don’t be upset about it. I know it is easy for me to say this, think about all of the people, employees and machines that handle your package. When it happened to me, this is what I did, I took a big deep breath of air, exhaled it, then went into the kitchen and drank a big cold glass of ice water.
As an ebay seller, back on June 8th, 2011 I sold an item to an ebay buyer. On June 9th, 2011, I sent the package out via Priority Flat Rate Padded Envelope with a Delivery Confirmation Number, the U.S. Postal Service Sort Facility received this package on this date. Then on June 17th, 2011, through ebays message system I received a message from the buyer telling me that they have not received their package. On June 20th, 2011, via snail mail I sent a copy of the buyer’s message [to me], and shipping label with the delivery confirmation number to the U.S. Postal Service Sort Facility that handles my packages that I ship out. On June 22nd, 2011, as backup I also sent a copy of the buyer’s message [to me], and shipping label with the delivery confirmation number to my Senator. On June 30th, 2011, I received a letter from the Manager at the Post Office Operations Center, saying that the package was in route to the buyer. The package was delivered to the buyer on July 2nd, 2011.
This was a good read. Thanks for the post.
