Stolen/misdelivered situation

[Jeff]

Been away for awhile but have stayed in the SY game. Nice to be back. 

FWIW, I've already decided to eat this one but figured I'd through it out there for opinions lol. 

Keeping it brief. Ordered from an extremely reliable sy on a Fri, opted for Sat. Delivery. Work Saturdays but this has been fine in past. TN sent, all moving well, parcel showed as delivered. No there when I came home. Wasn't worried and though it may have been delivered to common mail room area. Checked, nothing. 

11 other neighbors in building. Know a few and this has never been a prob. before. Feel like it was either A. Stolen  B. Delivered to wrong address  C. ????

Def hurts my wallet but I feel in the long run I'm better writing it off. I want no interaction with the carrier and can't exactly confront unknown folks. It's been a few days now so if someone else accidentally received it, they would've either returned it, kept it, or trashed it. 

Not worried, ate up over funds but would rather keep my head down and move on. 

Anyone else have go through something similar?

@Jeff Why would you feel uncomfortable calling the shipping company?  You were expecting concert tickets...so why not call and ask to which address the parcel was delivered to?  Even the most trustworthy vendor, years and years of being a customer -- doesn't matter, because shippers do and will make mistakes.  At least you could find out what address it was delivered to.

Mainly because if it was by some chance intercepted by the shipper don't want to open that can o worms. 

I have "delivery confirmation" online. And there's not much else they show, especially in large buildings. I dealt with this before with a stolen auto part. Shipper would cover but much was required and worst, that address would be flagged and all deliveries needing signatures. This was my understanding. 

I think a neighbor/delivery guy/salesman/Girl Scout/lol had a shady moment and snagged it.  Admit that I still get a glimmer of hope when approaching the front door though.

I am having a horrible time with a shipper. I don't know why some vendors have changed from one to another and are not requiring signatures. I just moved to a new complex and I also went back to a vendor I had not been with in a while. So, new shipper, new vendor, AND new address. Of course it was sent with no signature required. I looked at the details of the tracking number at 12:00 p.m. -- it said my stuff had been left at  the door two hours prior. Looked outside.. nothing!!!! There had been NO knocking at the door or anything! I had left a sealed envelope on the door but had put the shipper's  name in BIG LETTERS  on the outside. It had not been opened. I had put specific instructions in there in case I was asleep--taking it to the office, etc. The local UPS is not cooperating -- you cant have their phone number -- it can only be a call back if you have called the number. I have been going "around" all week and now I am trying to figure out who to blame.

I know with all my heart that the shipper did not come here -- never a knock at the door or anything! No one will ask the delivery guy specifics about my door -- there are many things that are unique -- like the huge magnolia wreath on the door. Supposedly, he was going to retrace his steps this past Monday -- I have heard nothing!! This new "no signature required" is a bad thing!!! Any driver could say "I left it at the door."  Did he? Did someone steal it? Did he leave it at the wrong place??? No one can tell me what happened!!! Why didn't he knock??? There is so much more to it but this is long enough -- but really -- who would you blame?
