Better than me. I watched tracking for my shipment until it said delivered. Checked the mailbox... nothing. Contacted the seller and they said to contact the post office. I've called them twice and keep getting told "I'll check with the carrier when she gets back in and will call you back" but never hear back. Tracking says it arrived on Friday. Dunno if it was stolen, delivered to the wrong address or what.

Might as well reply to myself to update this... Finally got an answer from the post office. Basically it was "It must have been delivered to the wrong house but the carrier doesn't remember where it might have gone. Nothing we can do unless someone turns it back in us."

Called back to the shipper and got much better news. Mad props to Apollo for this... they're replacing my shipment and sending it out tomorrow. No reason I should expect them to do this (they even said they don't often do this) since they don't have proof that I didn't just take the first one and run with it but I'd call this above and beyond as far as service goes. Should be shipping out tomorrow and I'll see it in a couple days.

Haha Jason! My regular mail carrier has a habit of delivering the paper mail on the way out and then looping back with packages after. Makes me CRAZY. "It's here! No it's not. But maybe it still will be!"
Mine did that to me the other day while I was waiting on something...I heard the brakes of the mail truck so I ran out side to check the mail...just junk mail. but the tracking number said out for delivery. I live on a dead end road so the mail man had to come back by so I stood by the road to ask if he had forgotten something...and then noticed he kept getting out of his truck to put stuff in the mail boxes of people on my side of the road. then when he got to the house accross the street he got out and gave me my package...
