<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gboulton, post: 1280905, member: 27043&quot;]Update on what I have decided to call &quot;The Wandering Half&quot;...</p><p><br /></p><p>Turns out it was PROCESSED for shipment on the 7th, which resulted in the email being sent that it had shipped. (I&#039;m pretty sure being ready to ship, and being shipped, are two different things...but we&#039;ll let that go for now)&nbsp; As it happens, however, since it had only been processed, it wasn&#039;t actually picked up until the next mail date...</p><p><br /></p><p>Which was, of course, the 11th.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>This, of course, means that the half reaching the Anaheim sort facility on the evening of the 11th now makes perfect sense.&nbsp; Why USPS.com says shipping info was received on the 12th is still a complete mystery....but it&#039;s only one of several in this case.</p><p><br /></p><p>In any event, if we presume that it was sorted on Tuesday evening, it&#039;s probably wandering its way cross country as we speak, and will likely arrive at the nearby sort facility tonight or tomorrow, and then find its way to me the following day.&nbsp; So, at this point, we&#039;re going to hope I FINALLY have my wandering half in my grubby paws by Saturday afternoon.</p><p><br /></p><p>Alternately, if there&#039;s been no update to tracking status by Monday, I&#039;ve been invited by the shipping manager to call back, and request that they start further investigation with USPS.&nbsp; While we all expect this will result in not much more info than the tracking page, it will at least document that we acted in a reasonable period of time to try to track the wayward package down.</p><p><br /></p><p>I must say here...at least to this point, I must commend teletrade for their service.&nbsp; They&#039;ve been easy to reach, and pleasant to deal with.&nbsp; I think, perhaps, further details should have been forthcoming during yesterday&#039;s call, but I WAS given the information I requested (a tracking number) at the time...so, all things considered, they&#039;re better than most these days.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s to hoping I finally have a &quot;real&quot; picture to post tomorrow. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
