I had an item that recently became "lost" when it passed from the U.S.P.S. to CBP at New York, J.F.K. Item was registered but there is no sign of it since early April. Both the U.S.P.S and CPB claim it must have been a problem with "them, not us". Now I just keep looking at coin sales in my area waiting for it to show up for a second chance at it. As crazy as it sounds I would have felt a lot better if I got an empty parcel and could stop hoping it will show up. On another story.. I purchased a coin last night and the seller contacted me this morning and said he couldn't locate it and sent a refund for $10.00 more than I paid to make amends. I was fine with an explanation and a refund. Stuff happens. Oh, and there was the other item that showed up this week. A red fiber 5 Fen from Manchuukuo dated 1945. It was delivered from a city within 20 miles of my house in one day. The envelope had tire marks on it with the coin smashed to bits. A second envelope with coins from a different seller also had tire marks but the coins were not damaged due to the packaging. Just shows that the envelope with the fiber coin did not get "accepted" at the Post Office in that condition.[/QUOTE]
