Delayed/Lost packages

[allthingsrandomshop2024]

Pulling my hair out here! USPS has lost 3 packages I have sent out in the last 30 days. 10 years of selling on here, I've never had this issue. I've refunded the customers and have only gotten reimbursed for one from the post office. One package was actually found AFTER refunding the customer, which they received but stopped communicating with me after receiving the item and being refunded ( imagine that). Anyone else having these issues? Trying to get just the postage I paid for the packages they lost is becoming quite a task in itself. All 3 packages were destined to mainly the east coast from the Midwest, so it wasn't the wildfires in California that affected delivery (as one postal worker claimed), correct me if I'm wrong but that's the wrong direction. Just frustrated and wondered if anyone had any words of wisdom for me!

I believe that this could be the problem

find it odd that a package arrives at 46219. Goes to 46299, and the back to 46219 and now nothing!

From what I have seen when you start seeing daily "scans" at 12 AM for a few days in a row that means prepare to refund.

I believe that these "scans" are completely fraud.

Only had two package actually lost by the USPS at the Jamaica, NY USPS sort center.  Shipped from  GA.  Both were shipped  at different times. Shipped a total of 1665 items bought multiple hundreds  on eBay and other on line sites.  Started mailing and receiving  stuff when I was 12 y.o. can't  recall having any lost mail =  first class mail and /or packages  in the  last 68 years.  Personally had 24 different mailing addresses in 5 different states in that time period - not including the 4.5 years away at college (7 different addresses there) or the 2  years with an APO/FPO address.   Yeah I was a nomad.  That is not a real bad  batting average.  Have  had  mail miss delivered but  redelivered  correctly by the USPS or just  by a thoughtful  neighbor. - those  are what I have termed the "human factor" issues. Some workers just Don't Give A Darn - just give me a paycheck - no cure.

Maybe you should read the original problem before you opine on someone's input.  There's no insurance involved either in the the original post or any of the responses, including mine
