    Longest Wait for a Package

    I have been trading through the mail for 30+ years and this is a new record for me. A package that was mailed from Stanhope New Jersey on 4 January showed up in my mailbox today. The envelope was filthy but there was no indication or explanation regarding where it had spent the past five plus months.
    The want list at this link features what I need of Gretzky, Roy, Ottawa Senators, and Miscellaneous sets. I also have a CFL want list on my page and if you have nothing from it I will consider other traders of current Ottawa Senators,Guy Lafleur, + trade bait.

    Brutal.

    Earlier this year I was experiencing major delays on packages from Eastern Canada. @Pheebs888 and I made a deal and it took over two months for the card to arrive. The delays also impacted other trades and eBay purchases, very frustrating.

    That's crazy. At least you still received the card! The only packages that disappear are some of my ebay sales and I don't think its the PO/workers whos making them disappear.

    Would be incredible to know where that package was/went before your mailbox. Maybe got sent to the other side of Canada?

    I just received Monday a card post marked 3/20/18 from BC to Missouri. Longest one ever for me, I asked for a refund in May, but have since contacted the buyer to repay him again since it was not his fault and was shipped on time. Would love to know where it was hiding all this time.

    saw a guy's package from Phoenix to Canada end up in Latvia (or some other Eastern European country) for some reason. It had gone to like 3-4 countries according the scans. I never saw the final resolution.

    Probably a month and a half, but nothing crazy like some of the stories I've heard.
