<p>[QUOTE="goincarcrazy, post: 1208337, member: 25004"]This is sort of an off topic reply, but hopefully might shed a bit of hope to the original poster. A friend of mine sent her wedding and engagement rings back to the original place where she bought them via priority, registered, insured, tracked, basically everything but an armed guard inside the box. Then for some random reason, here package still hadn't showed up 2 weeks later (mind you this is going from Florida to Seattle, but still, priority shouldn't take nearly that long). Then 3 weeks goes by and STILL nothing. Needless to say she had everyone and their uncle on the phone with USPS trying to figure out what was up. </p><p><br /></p><p>You may have a shot because everyone person that handles a registered package has to sign for handling and delivering it to it's proper next destination.

I can't remember the reason, but I remember when I was working in a coin shop in town, someone was sending us a coin from Georgia (the state), and it came to us about a month later with a French airmail sticker on the package... Something similar happened to my friends rings.
