    So sorry to hear that. I hope that it will still arrive. In the US I have the main postal number to call & I answer so slowly that the computerized message will finally connect me to a real person. I then tell them my situation & they usually get it straightened out after time. It pisses me off when that happens. I had customs hold a parcel for 2 months one time & hold my item ransom for that long until they released it & I finally got it. It was for an old vintage transformer.

    I once sent a Heljestrand MK33 from the US to a buyer in Germany. It took 3 months, 2 of which it spent in... Kenya. I feel your pain, but sometimes the post is just stupid and it takes time.

    Razors are probably ground up inside a package sorting machine.

    Hate to hear it.

    Well if the parcel was empty it may be the sorting machines, it may be the seller didn't pack well, and finally it may be a thief. A friend of mine, who worked for the USPS once pointed out to me that if an employee was caught pilfering they would lose their pension, whatever credits for accrued service, get fired, and go to jail. Not that there aren't people who will do such things in spite of the risks.

    As for the razors, the seller is responsible for insurance according to USA ebay, not the buyer. So I would expect you'll at least get your money back, and W&B made a bunch of them. Good hunting.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Awwww man, that sucks really bad!!!!! Someone really did want it. I'm very sorry for your loss. I had a package once that the tracking showed out for delivery & I was off work that day, so I waited on it all day long but when the mail came, it didn't show up, so I got on my Harley & rode to the post office raising all sorts of hell in front of all the customers & they tried to get me to be quiet but I kept on until they got a supervisor. He told me they would investigate it. The carrier had already made it back to the po & she swore she delivered it but I told her different. I was one pissed off guy. They told me that they would call me the next day to let me know what happened. I knew what happened, she delivered it to the wrong address but to make a long story short, I never got it & it costed me $65. The person that really got it was so wrong for not returning it to the po or to say it was sent to the wrong adderss but never did because that person was a dishonest pos! I know exactly how you feel & they should track their packages a lot more closer than they do but unfortunately they don't. I feel very bad for you!

    Good news on getting the money back, hopefully you can find some comparable razors to dull the pain.
