I just got a call from my wife who said the mailman just delivered the package....I feel like an idiot, but I was freaked out when the postal carrier said that he had left it on my porch...not only that, but he recalled I had two packages and he left one in the mailbox and the other on the porch because it said "Do not bend" on it...well he did leave the package from Goodwin and Co. (Catalog sent priority) in my mailbox so I figured he knew wtf he was talking about and that it had to have been stolen. I don't know if I acted irrationally or not, but I was very upset about losing that photo and may have acted a little hastily.

Glad to hear it Dan, that isn't really a "replacable" item so I know you are much happier with the item then the cash back!

-to hunterduchess, I understand where you got the two threads mixed up so I take back what I said about never dealing with you, I would be pretty steamed if it were me in the other instance as well!

-Rhett

Glad to hear it worked out for 'ya! Nothing more maddening than to think/know a package was delivered, yet you can't find it & don't have it!

All kinds of scenarios run thru one's mind as to where it is & where to turn.

Hindsight is 20/20, but the first thing I did when I began reading this thread was to look for the "hey, it just showed up on my doorstep" post. I've had loads of weird problems with USPS, UPS and FedEx, but 99.9% of them got resolved in a day or two. There is something to be said for being a little patient.

Glad you got the package!

Yeah, I'm a little embarrassed to have jumped the gun like that, but I was so antsy to get the package that I figured it must be at the post office or still on the truck...and when the postal carrier said he had put it on my porch I panicked a bit.

Hey Dan - glad it showed up! This way everyone wins! No worries on acting hastily, easy to see how emotions would have run high here - just fall on your sword w/the Seller and move on :-) Tomorrow it'll all be a memory.

Thanks Ed, I apologized to the seller and told her I acted too hastily. She told me that she learned a lesson too and she will now purchase signature confirmation on high dollar transactions.
