<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jaceravone, post: 362523, member: 9474&quot;]USMCDAD - Last summer, I purchased a set of gold coins from someone on ebay.&nbsp; Three weeks went by and my set still did not show up.&nbsp; Based on a past experience, I immediately started investigations with the post office, ebay and paypal.&nbsp; Fortunately, the seller kept in great contact with me so I never thought he was trying to cheat me, unlike my first bad experience.&nbsp; He gave me a tracking number but during the first week or so nothing came up.&nbsp; Then I saw where it was in this one distribution center, but by this time three weeks had gone by.&nbsp; By the forth week, the coin set was found.&nbsp; Ended up that the post office had it in a safe at my local distribution center. But according to the USPS website, the package was not even close to me.&nbsp; This is what the post office told me happened: However it was sent (I can&#039;t remember if it was certified or registered or both) it was placed in a secure location in the post office.&nbsp; With each movement, whoever transported the set had to document that they handled the package.&nbsp; I was told by my local post office official that sometimes, because the package is stored in a safe, usually on location, but seperate from the general mail population, that whoever is supposed to transport it sometimes forgets to pull it out of the safe.&nbsp; Therefore, it just takes longer to receive.&nbsp; Didn&#039;t make me feel any better, but I did receive it and I was happy.&nbsp; I kept checking the USPS tracking site and a week later it finally showed up as being delieved to my local post office.&nbsp; Almost a month went by before everything was completed.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I hope this gives you a glimmer of hope that your package could still be out there.&nbsp; I do not judge your decisions - those are decisions that you have to learn from and unfortuately, live with.&nbsp; Many of us have been there, in some way, to varying degrees.&nbsp; I am sorry that have to worry about this. I hope it all works out.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And shame on Gaithersburg Coins if they have not sent out your package and make you worry like that.&nbsp; If they value you as a customer, they should stay in contact with you until a solution is found - that is the least they can do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
