I'd give it some more time. I had a bow that I shipped from Missouri to Kentucky and it took 19 days(Priority mail)...lol Go figure?

The Post Master and I were at the stage of just waiting for the time to pass so we could file a claim but then volwalla(sp?) It finally showed up.

God bless,Mudd

I shipped a priority mail package to Anchorage,AK one time...heavy sucker too.

It took 30 days to show up. Priority Mail. Big box, heavy...and it got "misplaced" somewhere along the line, but showed up eventually, in good shape.

HOpefully, it just got on the wrong truck at the "sort" and will wander its way home to the right recepient!

Yeah, it'll show up eventually.  Now, if it was UPS with a tracking number, I'd be worried....

I never send anything priority mail anymore.  I have found that sending it snail mail the package always gets there and normally just as quickly as priority mail does.  Most of the time the snail mail is within one or two days of the promised priority mail date.  I have had packages disappear and also be up to 20 days late using priority mail.

I just recently sent a MO for a bow I bought off the Classifieds and it took 2 weeks to get from NJ to MS. Had me nervous.

I must say that I have had excellent results with Priority Mail. After saying this I hope my luck continues. I think the pack will get there,or I hope it does!
