Have you spoken to anyone Barb? That situation begs intervention. So sorry for your trouble!
To Fedex and USPS!

And my local postmaster (Goodna Qld Oz) recalls a package for a "TBC"... said it was en-route to Sydney NSW before heading to Auckland New Zealand.
Apparently the problem has been the TBC.... when nobody goes in to pick it up, it's forwarded somewhere else 'to be collected'.

Was this package addressed to TBC or to Prof. Henry Higgins?

Hell...You should have called me...I could have gone and picked it up and had it to you by now.

Prof. Higgins....rings a bell, what movie is it from?



btw....as of this morning it is still in Texas!!!

You should just call and ask them to hold it there in Texas... going to collect the package yourself would probably be quicker...
... not to mention stopping using up all your frequent flyer points before it flies out to Alaska.
Edit:
This reminds me of a feel good story I saw on the 6 o'clock news a couple of years back. A man who served in the British army during WW II had a letter his wife had written in 1943 finally delivered in 2006... after it had been to Egypt, Malaya, Papua New Guinea and Singapore, etecetera, etcetera. He moved around a lot in his post and the letter always arrived after he had been posted elsewhere... apparently becoming lost in Burma or somewhere. Both he and his wife still were alive when it was finally delivered by British Post: "Return to Sender".
They said that after a few giggles they relived some old memories... the letter contained news of the birth of their first child.

That would be "My Fair Lady" if my old mind serves correctly...
Which was made 2 years before I entered the world.

You're absolutely correct!
The reference should have been to Phineas Fogg.
Yet another sign that Doc is headed for the main entrance to "Club Al".

You need to pop over to the UK - I have your package here...
Reply #18 Friday, December 4, 2009 11:08 PM
Ah! So you have the other half? Auckland GPO has been searching high and low for it.

Thanks guys but it seems the package will forever be in Coppell, Texas. It is the last place it was scanned, and when I called that Post Office , they had no idea where it was. I emailed the WOOT site, and they are refunding my money.

Bummer!
At least they're giving you a refund. I really don't like it when crumby things happen to friends.
You know, if try again it probably will go well....

Looks like you are in for a long wait. The package hasn't even been sent to California or Alaska yet!
