delivery problems, need advice

[alfuhmale]

after taking the advice of several bros on here I had my gear shipped to another house I own under a fake name (via usps). The name I used is the previous owners because I still get mail for him as recently as friday. The shipment was expected tuesday but there was no mail at all so I ran the tracking number and it said the package was delivered and gave a specific time too. I could see that everyone on the block received mail but I didnt get any at all. So now I just figured some lazy civil servant didnt feel like finishing the route and would deliver it today. Today again all my neighbors got mail but I get nothing, not even junk mail. So now I'm freaking out. I dont know if they know its gear and opened it.......can they do that? or if they just think something is up with a package being delivered under the old owners name (they didnt have a problem putting his bills in my mail box over the last year) Wouldnt they just return to sender if they thought there was something up? I dont understand why the website says delivered but I'm not getting any mail at all. I'm too paranoid now to call my local post office. any ideas? anyone ever have this happen?

i had a pack take 3 weeks and my guy resent. the second one came on time and then the other came like a week later. it was unopened, who knows what happened. its weird it says delivered. does it say delivered or enroute. if it says enroute or accepted at a post office all that means is that they have it and it will come soon. if it says delivered or complete then it is weird

it was accepted at the post office on monday (gives my local p.o.'s zip code) and then it says delivered on tuesday. it was priority which i think is two business days. so today is the 3rd day.

I think it is unusual. Be careful!

yea if it says delivered and accepted that is weird. i would be very weary.

The PO could have delivered it to the wrong address. I had that happen. Once I notified them they tracked it down for me. It took them about a week.

well I have no intention of going to p.o. to pick it up, I'm hoping they just return to sender so I'm not out all my $$$. I would think they would atleast put a note in the mail box to pick it up if they thought something was up.

yea it is weird man. i still never know what happened to mine. it said it came into the city i live in and just no activity for weeks. every cop i saw i was ready to book. you should be ok, it probably got lost. usps is not always that reliable. a few times my guy had to fedex it to me. if you are using a good source they should resend

What if he filled out a mail forwarding request and it got sent to his new address?
Thats possible...sometimes some get thru to the old address and sometimes the Post Office catches and sends to the new address.

you think i shoudl just call my p.o. and say i'm the person who was supposed to receive it or call the 1-800 # and say i'm the sender and the person I mailed to never received but the website says delivered?
