No damn wonder this pkg is so slow! I ordered a part from amazon on Nov 20. Now usually I have a couple of days wait. I see why it's late by looking at the tracking info.... check this out! it reads from bottom to top in chronological order so it's kinda confusing. How many times does it have to leave and arrive at the same distribution center in LA Cal,? Must have made 1000 miles circling the parking lot :rolleyes:

The Adventures of a Package sent via UPS
I was going to ship a package to someone in Cynthiana, Kentucky on Friday the 12, but an ice storm here prevented it from being picked up. So I did it on the 15th. It was supposed to have been delivered on the 17th, by end of day.

Well, it decided to take a trip around the Eastern United States. Actually, I don't think the package itself was complicit in the detour it has taken. According to the admission of a UPS rep I spoke to from Lexington, Kentucky, one digit was left out of the address on the small label they put on for the driver, or maybe it was in his records, I'm just guessing it had to do with the small label that gets put on at some point in a package's delivery process. Well, so they tried to deliver it three times, the last two times in one day, Last Thursday the 18th. (Their message in the tracking page says "The company or receiver name is incorrect.") The main label stays attached, and it was correct, but apparently no one ever looked at it. I didn't see what was happening because I was at a viewing (visitation hours) for a close family member all afternoon and evening that day, and the funeral the following morning.

So they decided to send it back to Berlin. Only they didn't send it to Berlin, OH, but rather to Berlin, NH. I spoke with the UPS rep Friday afternoon, and it was supposed to be re-directed to a new address in Indiana, where the Kentucky business is starting a branch. The UPS message says "We updated the delivery information for your package. / Your package will be delivered to an alternate address." Only that didn't happen. It continued on its way to New Hampshire.

I spoke with another UPS agent the morning of the 22nd, after it had arrived tired and travel-weary in Stratford, Connecticut, after a stop in Chelmsford, MA, where ever in 'ternation that is. But the next day they put it on a truck for delivery to, you guessed it, Berlin, New Hampshire. Fortunately the "receiver" refused delivery. (The UPS message says "The receiver states the product was not ordered and has refused the delivery. / Delivery will be rescheduled." Three minutes later a message states that "The receiver is no longer in business. / The address was corrected."

Yesterday it spent about 7 hours sight seeing in Shrewsbury, MA (again, What in 'ternation is MA?), then today made it out to Hodgkins, Illinois. Supposedly it will be delivered to Waynetown, Indiana tomorrow. (My apologies if you are from what ever state goes by 'MA'....)

While I would love to go out to Oklahoma (or even Colorado or Oregon) to visit my scattered family, I'll be jealous if this package makes the trip on out there.
 
We had an issue with a package running circles and we found out the sender re-used a box and they had not totally blacked out the old address so it kept circling our house.

Good luck Smallfoot....

The world is spinning out of control for sure....

I was thinking those electric powered trucks in California kept running to the end of their extension cords...hoho!

That cane through my hometown in CT. Not a straight line at all. Jim
 
No damn wonder this pkg is so slow! I ordered a part from amazon on Nov 20. Now usually I have a couple of days wait. I see why it's late by looking at the tracking info.... check this out! it reads from bottom to top in chronological order so it's kinda confusing. How many times does it have to leave and arrive at the same distribution center in LA Cal,? Must have made 1000 miles circling the parking lot :rolleyes:

I've had packages arrived in my hometown only to have them leave on anther trip an eventually come back. Recently had one refunded because it supposedly drop off the face of the earth only to have it delivered a few days later. Jim
