Not trading card related, but about a month ago I guess I had purchased a DVD at Ebay. The tracking went smoothly and one day I got an email notice that said the package had been delivered. When I got home that night the package wasn't there.I checked tracking and it had marked the package as having been delivered that day (before noon I think). I had another package from eBay that arrived at my doorstep and was marked as being delivered at my door.  I waited the next day to see if the package arrived as I know sometimes when something is marked as being delivered it is still in the truck waiting to be delivered and usually gets delivered the next day. The Ebay standard envelopes are notorious for this. Well the package was again a no show. I thought that once again I had been the victim of porch pirates being in a garden style apartment, but why only take one package and not both? However that didn't make sense since the delivery notice said the package was IN or around the mailbox not my front door, and I had received the other package by the door. Still it is possible it was left by the mailboxes and someone grabbed it. Fortunately for me the package finally arrived about 5 days after the "delivered" notice IN my mailbox. So it is possible the post office was backlogged for some reason. I think it was after all the holidays backups and not part of them but it could have been.
