I feel your pain. I had a part I ordered from a member in the LA area that took about a month to arrive. Every day tracking was different. It showed going from LA to Tucson to Texas to Denver back to Texas, to LA, then to Denver again, then Salt Lake, back to Texas where it showed no movement for a while. It showed up at my place finally but still showed being in Texas. If it wasn't so frustrating trying to figure it all out it would have been amusing - all those moves showed up no more than overnight, and many were the same day. That's one fast moving package!
My local post office is a hell-hole of bad attitudes, indifference, and inefficiency. Asking them if they could help was a total waste of time and energy. No wonder postage rates keep going up. If the tracking was to be believed, I think I totaled up something like 4800 miles on it.
