I ordered a Osprey Aether 70 hiking pack from Ebay back on May 3. The guy I ordered it from shipped it on the 3rd of May and the tracking number shows that it Left the Jacksonville, Fl mail facilty on May 4th. It was supposed to be delivered on May 8. I still have not seen my package.
I have filled out a lost mail form and the guy that shipped it to me has done the same thing at the post office he shipped it from. He said the label was covered in packing tape and he sees no way in which the label could have came off during transit without destroying the box. I have called USPS three times and they could not tell me a thing.
The package, unfortunaly, was not insured (the seller did not offer insurance and I forgot to ask) so the lady I talked to on the phone said that there was no way I would get any kind of refund from them with insurance. So basically it looks like I am out 1 backpack and $200.
I am starting to give up hope of ever getting the package. I read on the internet that the USPS has a lost mail warehouse somewhere and that it can be searched for my item via a database. That is going to be my next move.
I would like to know what I can do to make life for the USPS a living Hell for losing my package. I plan on filing a complaint with Consumer Affairs, but I really don't think that will do much.
What other options do I have to try to get my package or at least get my money back?
