    Wondering if this has ever happened to you all...FedEx was to have delivered a package to me yesterday. It was supposedly delivered last night at 5:57 pm, but alas, no box. I trust my neighbors/neighborhood and none of them had it by accident. So, at the advice of my trading partner, I called them. They initiated a trace and were going to get back to me. They called me and left a voicemail today, wanting to discuss it with me. And then, lo and behold, it was truly delivered at 12:47 this afternoon. Rather than tempting fate, I'm not going to follow up with FedEx...so, has this ever happened to any of you and should I just leave it alone and be glad I got my great box?

    Cheers and Beers!

    If it was delivered, what's the issue? I'm confused. Yesterday would have been better but........???

    Yes, either UPS or Fedex (leaning to the former) said it had been delivered, but it came the next day

    Yes, happens all the time with both carriers. Just human error on the part of the drivers...

    Just more of a curiosity than anything else, as I did get the box...but with 100+ trades, this has never happened to me. Plus the fact that (I'm assuming, anyway) a box has to be physically scanned every step of the way, including delivery...it just gave me cause for alarm...

    I just had a trade where the tracking said itd be delivered Tues, then said it was early in that itd be delivered Sat, then went N/A for 4 days and was delivered Tues. Use tracking only as a guideline, not an absolute
