at what point would you freak out about a lost package

two weeks and no scans / it’s a registered mail consignment fully insured but we all know insurance companies do not like pay out

With as swamped as the USPS is I like to give it a month. If you have not signed up for the text and email alerts do it. Weirdly as soon as you sign up for alerts the package shows up or gets delivered the next day. Had it happen with 2 late packages yesterday.

Post office is slow again, packages can sit in a place for 14-21 days, then all of a sudden, start moving again.

it’s just the most expensive consignment I’ve ever sent

I’ve been sending them consignments every month and the tracking has always been the same until now / it’s there in 5-6 days usually but it’s going on day 15

it departed my city on the 13th and has not ben scanned sense

I have several including one that says it was delivered and wasn't and one that was and says its in transit
govt at its best

Man I hope so! I’ll give a month then I’m filing a claim.

At this point I don’t even want to sell them anymore, I just want my cards back.

stopped in at usps today and they no longer guaranteed over night express shipping.

Psa, BGS and even cbcs comic graders have all stopped outgoing shipments.

Something is going on.

I had one vanish for 4.5 weeks without a trace or scan. Then, poof it popped up and arrived. Hang in there.

I feel you. I had multiple packages do that over the holidays, including situations where there were no scans past the printing of the label, and the seller(s) swore to me they had hand dropped-off at a post office. Eventually they all showed up. The USPS mantra lately seems to be something like "Don't expect to be impressed, but we'll get it there. Eventually." Yeah, it's horrible. I saw the NPR story last week about congressional interest in the USPS's continually falling "on-time" delivery rates repeated on several cable news channels yesterday. When congress actually starts to give a damn about something like the Post Office, you know it's bad.

I live in Philadelphia and I am still waiting for a package from North Jersey for the better part of 2 months. I mailed a package to San Francisco and it got there in 4 days.
