I ordered from BargainFittings.com May 2nd (I believe it was), so anyways I get home from work today and have a mail slip in my mail box (apartment complex) and an email for a confirmation signed by complex manager. All is normal as I am expecting the package and things are looking normal.
Then SHTF!
I go inside only to be told, and shown mind you, that my package is nowhere to be found. They tell me that the mailman brings in a load at a single time typically and they just sign off in bulk. First, that is ridiculous. Second, how damned lazy can you be? So I accept that it wasn't in the bulk that it SHOULD have been in and go to my apartment to try and figure it out for myself as the complex workers could care less about my $200 worth of stainless beer gear.
Welcome to my apartment.
I take a seat on my ever so comfy red fabric couch, open up the laptop and sink into the couch to do a little investigating. Being the cheap ass I am, my internet is incredibly slow so I pull out the cell phone and kick on gmail through 3g service.
BOOM!
USPS Confirmation, delivered today into my gmail. So as I am walking to the car again to go back to the office to find my package I read that it was deliever to the complex manager/worker lady and she had signed for it on March 8th. Thinking nothing of it, I continue my adventure and ask where my package may be since they have signed for it and I got 2 forms of confirmation that it was delivered today. They look again and say "He must not have brought it in, I'm sorry, its not our fault." In this stupid cute little voice trying to make me pity their situation.
So I re-look at the confirmation..MARCH 8th. WTF?!?! It clicks. WHY am I getting a confirmation of a package being delived MARCH 8th on MAY 7th? I scroll through my email and see no order confirmations in my email through February 28th -March 8th. Now, I ordered through Amazon on February 20th. I ordered some film which was Amazon PRIME shipped, which I believe is UPS/FedEx. So, it's not USPS.
All I can do is call in the morning the 3 places my packages have come in contact with. The shipper, the Post Office, and my complex. How in the WORLD do I get a slip, a (wrongly dated) confirmation, and the fact I'm expecting the package....and NOT get a package?
