I sent my dear reo to the Robert home for injured reos last week. He did what he always did, fixed it up good and promptly sent it back on Friday. Estimated arrival date back yesterday. Didn't come then, but hey, it's the holidays and things get backed up a bit, no biggy. Checked the delivery confirmation, no updates since leaving Scarborough on the 15th. Well, it'll update tomorrow and my reo will be headed home.

My mail guy should be coming around any time now, still no tracking changes, and I'm getting scared the post office has lost my precious yellow devil. Overreacting? Yeah, probably, but it's only natural... I still haven't even gotten to try out my reomizer yet :s

:blink: I would be getting nervous too...but then, everytime I start getting nervous it shows up. :laugh: I hope that is what happens for you. :nun:

I was hoping to appeal to universal karma - when you get nervous about silly things, then share that concern with others, the universe will always make you feel silly by solving the problem shortly after. I better go find a nice big pile of dirt.

Most of us can relate to your anxiety. I recently ordered some things from REO and it was still showing "processed at sort facility" in Maine the day it was out for delivery here. It doesn't happen very often, and we get a lot of packages, but all sorts of people on ECF experience similar. I would say that about 5% of the packages we receive aren't tracked well or not at all. They are usually USPS but it occasionally happens with UPS and FedEx but not as often.

Sorry and I do hope all is well. You are right that it could be delayed by holiday. Hope you get a nice surprise any day.

Go to the USPS web page and ask about it on their email system, if it doesn't get moving. It helps prod it along.

Report it as a problem and they look into it in about 24 hours.

USPS - Frequently Asked Questions

I hope it arrives before you fill it out.

Fiddlesticks. Better start writing this, my appeal to the karma of silliness has failed.

Make no mistake, if the USPS lost my yellow devil, I will go friggin' postal. I sent the investigation request, I know I have to be patient and let it appear from the postal abyss, but I am so sick of having to drip and use this giant stick of the backup vmax. I want my magic vape box back :'(
I hear ya buddy dripping is a drag it drove me batty . I am sure your mod will show up the holidays have to be slowing the post office down

Tracking updated, it'll be here today. I suppose I just had to add a little extra shame to the pot before my sacrifice was accepted.

I have no idea where I'm going to find a pile of dirt big enough to throw myself in now. But, thank you all for your support in this trying time...

Let's all pretend this never happened!

Your post will give those waiting for REO's something to read and let them gain hope that all is well!!!!

Always is nice to know someone else has sat and worried!

Now get up from that dirt pile, you have helped!!!! LOL!!!

I was just giving you grief ;) I think my name is still on the list of reonauts somewhere, but I don't poke my head out and post here often anymore.

You made me look LUKE! Yes, I still have the list saved!

Now some grief for you, get yourself a back-up REO as soon as you can!!! They really can come in handy. Of course you will be put in the "waiting" mode for your back-up. And the tracking might stall out.......and you might get nervous..........again!!!! LOL!
:wub:
