[Gishdream]

I don't know where exactly to put this but.....Has anyone ever shipped a bat and it gone to the completly wrong part of the US? I shipped a bat that is addressed to go to Georgia and was suposted to be delivered Sep 5th. Its now in California?? Do you think it will eventually make its way there?

Priority or Express?

 

[Gishdream]

It was regular. Ground I guess. (my wife shipped it for me or it would have been priority).

I was told that B/C of the DNC here that some shippments were delayed. But nothing like this..

You answered your own question(s) yourself then ..

 

[Gishdream]

But why would the package go to California to go from NC to GA?

 

[Joker]

you sure you have the right DC#?

 

[Gishdream]

He hasn't been on in a few days. But it appears to be correct. I am sure he is going to want to know where his bat is. I'll know more when he gets online.

Someone at the PO confused GA for CA, sloppy handwriting perhaps???

I ordered something from Texas and went all the way to new York before it eventually came to Oregon, it happens.

this happened to me once and the package ending up arriving as expected to the buyer. just something screwy was goin on with the tracking.

^^^this. The PO doesn't go by the city/state listed on the label but the zip code. So unless they mistook the "3" as a "9" as the first number, something screwy is up.

This makes me feel better. I guess I will wait it out.

Priority or Express?

I meant to say Priority or Parcel Post ... parcel post shipping can take 8-10 days as parcel is considered 'not in a hurry'. You pay for the service you get.

I sent a bat out east a while back and it went to Phoenix first. It still got there, and I still don't know why it went all the way from St Louis to Phoenix before doing a 180 and heading back east.

You are right, there is zero possibility that a over worked under paid human would make that kind of mistake. Once again Joke(r) knows all.
