The Mad Red Motherf**ker World Tour.
-
I had a parcel come from the US to Australia a few weeks ago. The tracking showed it being in Chicago, SF, Sydney, and then SF and Chicago again, before apparently making another trip via SF and Sydney to get here! I don't know if it was an error in the system or the package crossed the Pacific three times!
A few months earlier I had a small package get stuck in the Jamaica processing facility in NY for about two months. I thought that it was lost, and then it suddenly turned up.
The postal service seems to be pretty messed up at the moment. I'm guessing that it's a combination of more items being shipped because people have been at home, and fewer international flights because no-one is travelling.

Still pending… tried to contact german customs duty and the postal provider who supposed to carry the Mad Red!
Produced some 3D stickers for all participants meanwhile...

After a long brake (the boys and me got infected with Sarc Cov 2 a month ago. Fortunately Juri and Emil are alright now but I'm still pretty sick) Neph brought me back with his post

today. I was hoping to see some new Mad Red Adventures. What happened? -
To make a long story short: The Mad Red hasn’t arrived yet!
After several PM’s with jordanscollected and neph, research started on both continents!
@jordanscollected :
„I talked to a live USPS agent today and they opened a case for me to look into it. The case will be looked at by both the U.S. and Germany and they have my email and phone number to call me to give an update with their findings. They don't have any tracking information beyond what we can see online, but they will dig into it.
I was told Germany requires 25 business days to complete case# inquiries, and I am to reach back out to USPS after 30 days if I haven't heard anything from them.
She walked me through the address as we had it listed, and all seemed right.
I will keep you both in the loop when/if i hear anything.“Get well soon @trail and arrow !

I called usps last week and spoke to someone in International mail division. They don’t have any updates, but she referred back to the original 25 and 30 day (US and Germany) time period to hear back on an open case. That date will arrive at the end of this month and if it still isn’t resolved they will “escalate” the issue.
I’m working my ass off to figure this out and I’m more than frustrated.

@trail and arrow I hope that you recover from Covid soon, and I must apologise on behalf of my countrymen if it was the nasty, British variant.
@jordanscollected fingers crossed that Mad Red re-emerges. If not, there will be a very cool UPS guy wandering around in it.
-
don't know if its pure luck or not, but I checked that tracking for you guys and it seems its moving again since today! Should arrive next week I recon.

Thanks Guys!

Another call to USPS, and yet another disappointing result. They have no further information about the jacket right now. What they did do, however, is "escalate" my already opened case. I am supposed to hear something within 5-7 business days.
Here is the email I got from them just after the call.
"Dear Jeff Baker,Thank you for contacting the United States Postal Service
and taking the time to share your concerns with us. Your inquiry has been processed and assigned to Service Request # 28144666.Your inquiry has been forwarded to the appropriate management team for research and response. You can expect initial contact within one-business day.
We invite you to visit our Frequently Asked Questions page at: https://faq.usps.com/s/article/Where-is-my-package for help with your future mailing and shipping needs.
