Mom recently ordered an item from ebay - an adorable penguin hat that Claire's botique use to make. The seller was in England.
She gave the package plenty of time to reach her (at least a month I think) and finally contacted the seller asking where it was.
Seller: Here's the shipping code, but it's out of my hands cos it's in the USPS now.
I was ready to launch a firemission on him in case he was scamming, getting ready to walk mom through feedback. And I suggested she only used ebay to communicate with him.
Mom decided to check the post office first, and brought a copy of the UK shipping code.
USPS: hmmm wait a minute... *goes to vault and comes back* Here it is!
Either they never gave mom the slip to sign to pick it up, or never picked up her signed slip and just tossed the package in the vault. So it'd been sitting there for at least a week.
And yes, mom was kind enough to let the seller know that the package was in and thanked him for it.
