I find that hard to believe or I have a rather unlucky streak going on seeing how the package would have to have gone through more than one hub and someone would have noticed especially the supervisors when loading the misort lists etc. That and it shipped from Wisconsin so why the hell did it go to Nevada then to California. It could have been driven straight south a whole faster.

I've seen this happen before, but it was a mistake (the tracking was mistaken, I believe) and the package arrived the next day. Still not sure why, though.

Sometimes a tracking # gets used twice, happened to me once. Looked like my package visited 8-10 states before it got to me.

UPS lost it had to go back in time to get it obv.
I would say either mix up or that it has to travel in a certian way until it reachers a dispatch.
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

I'm guessing that was when the book, which I ordered, was restocked at the B&N warehouse or something.

Lol that's pretty weird. I know sometimes with cheap airplane tickets you gotta go through the airlines hub so you might go from New York to Miami to Nashville or something out of the way like that. Maybe it's something similar?

I had something like this happen. It said it was heading back to where it came from, but it arrived the next day.

One day I saw the UPS guy outside my house and I knew he was delivering my CPU so I went outside to greet him and he drive right passed. Then I saw him drive back down my street again (like he was lost) and I ran outside and he just left.
Turns out they put 1 number off on my address (only like 4 houses on the street) and he sent it back to the shipping place. Took them another week and a half after I called them and corrected the info. T_T

PS- And when I got the CPU the package was all smashed up, luckily the parts inside were fine though.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Is this a fucking joke I woke up to see a UPS truck outside my house. There is no package nor do my neighbors have one. I mean it is a god damn book.

THE RECEIVER IS ON A HOLIDAY. DELIVERY WILL BE ATTEMPTED WHEN THE RECEIVER RETURNS / PACKAGE WILL BE DELIVERED NEXT BUSINESS DAY-NO SATURDAY GUARANTEE

UPS = insta fail, I say we tie letters to the legs of birds and tell them to fly to the recievers, for larger packages use multiple birds.
