    I suggest that you call USPS and have your tracking number on hand. It seems that the USPS distribution center in Phoenix is having ....... problems with packages going missing ...... ummmm I mean being delayed ... I have a package that was suppose to be delivered on Feb. 6th, tracking said it made it to the Phoenix distribution center and LEFT that center on Feb. 3rd., package did not arrive by the 6th and tracking now says delayed. BTW, I live in Tucson, AZ. which is 2 hours away from Phoenix. It does not take mail more than 2 days to go from Phoenix to Tucson. Unfortunately, for me, this has not been the first package to be lost ..... ummm delayed .... between the Phoenix distribution center and my home.

    That happened to a Christmas package I sent to my parents once. What did I pay this amount for? They did get it the day after.

    I'm sure your present will get there.

    I read that you can get a refund but only for Priority Mail EXPRESS......I believe mine was regular PM.

    How disappointing for you. I can understand your concern but I’m sure it is safe, just late. I just sent a baby quilt to my DGS in Key West and opted for more insurance...just in case. : /

    The post office must have had a bad week last week! I sent a package from Minnesota to Wisconsin and when it didn't get to its destination on the planned date, I started tracking it like you did (it also said "in transit - delayed". Mine went from Minnesota to Iowa, back to Minnesota, and then to another location in Wisconsin before finally getting to where it was supposed to go, 4 days late. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

    So sorry your package didn’t make it in time for the shower. Please keep us updated. Things go awry, but here’s hoping that it did not go missing. Hugs!

    On a positive note - your gift will arrive after the fact and not be lost in the shuffle of all the other shower gifts. Downside is shower guests didn’t get to admire it. One way or the other your granddaughter will love it.

    I won’t send anything else via USPS. Recently I sent a quilt via 3 day priority US mail from SC to TX and it took 2 weeks to arrive.

    I ordered some special cream through Amazon (prime - 2 day delivery) needed for my Mom who is now in a nursing home. They sent it UPS and sent me the tracking number .... that was two weeks ago, and they have now advised the package is "missing" and I will not get it... and it is not available through a reorder. The tracking number shows it left the provider, but nothing else.

    It happens. We have packages that take the scenic route. Don't stress - she'll get it and love it.
