... I do feel like a big piggy on this but tried to get the shipment back down to one large flat rate box and tried to include items of value I was wondering if it was time to send the two boxes on different routes, but that adds a whole 'nuther complication of managing the list of recipients. |

I was successful in packing it down to one box. There was some packing materiel between both boxes so there was unused space between both boxes. The 9mm brass, plastic blocks, powder dispenser and 44 special dies were taking up a good amount of space or were awkward to pack around. |

Wasn't able to find the tracking number, tried calling USPS customer service but can only get an automated response asking for the tracking number. Going to contact the post office the wife shipped it from and see if they have a way to recover the number. |

ya know...just FYI....USPS has this cool site where you can go order their boxes and they will deliver them to your house! You can also ship online using one of their boxes and charge it directly to your paypal account, then schedule pickup and they'll walk up to your door the next morning and get it whereever you laid it!
Awesome time saver! Just print label, tape it on, schedule pickup, throw on front porch. Easy Breezy! |

I am sorry about losing the tracking number on this. Called the USPS and she said that they have no way to track the package without the number. She also said that it should take about 4 days or so to get there, so it should have been there Friday or Saturday. If it fails to show up in the next day or two I will make a new case and get it in the mail and post the tracking number. |

Yeah, I don't see a need to publish it. It's more to CYA in case the package is lost you can show that you did ship it.
