Oh, wow - that’s a sad outcome!
Are you legal? If so, you can open a case with USPS to find the package - unless it’s too late. Still, it would be worth calling them, but only if you’re legal (or a thrill seeker!)

For a bit. Just might have to do that. I do have tracking number saved I can run it says in transit arriving late. Last time this happened never showed up

There’s a time limit for how long you have to open a case after the shipping date, so you should do it ASAP.
You should use the description of the package that @middleman provided, because they’re likely going to ask you about it.
Also, they might tell you that the shipper (Sebring) is the one who needs to open the case, but just push back and tell them that he’s been MIA for about 4 weeks due to illness.

If he never does another one of these, I’d completely sympathize/understand.

Start a claim! Usual shows up fast. If it is in Detroit, where packages go to die, you have a chance. I had the local postmaster get involved once and they called. It was outside in a container that was never logged in.

Definitely file a claim ! I had an envelope with cash I sent out that got lost. I had tracking on it as well. Apparently the tracking sticker the USPS used was folded over the edge of my envelope so the bar code was bent in half. Don’t know why that matters as it’s a bar code, but they told me it can’t be scanned by the machines if it is.
Anyway I had to keep on top of them before I was able to find out what happened.
My case was open for a week with no response. I called, they apologized and opened another. That also lasted a week and I had no response.
So finally the last person I talked to understand I was mad, so they stayed in contact with me almost every day.
They finally found my envelope and it was just a scanning issue. But they got it to where it needed to be. It was lost for almost 2 months, but I annoyed them enough and it got found.

I kinda feel bad for everyone involved here. I feel bad for Sebring (not gonna @ him) and @DougDawson both because 1, Sebring is obviously going through it pretty bad to have fallen off the face of the earth like that and 2, Doug did his absolute best with what he has and still caught shit for it like it’s his fault when in reality, it’s nobody’s fault. Nobody “has” to do any of this for us either. It very well could be left up to the growers to send their seeds out on their own. But it’s not. And the one time a wrench gets thrown into the cog, the whole server melts down. I have faith that everything will be ironed out, either with Sebring or without. Replacements will be appointed, bulk seeds will be received and broken down and subsequently be shipped out. And as for as payment goes, you can’t complain about $20 for 4-5 packs of seeds when seeds now are like $100-$250 a pack for jumbled together cookie and cake crosses. Either way, you’re winning. But anyway, there’s my unwanted two cents on the matter lol. I’ll go back to my cave now.

Oh man ! That’s so nice
Crystal clusters and a waterfall ? I would go there all the time.
I’ve also always wanted to hike the smokey mountains too. Hiking the entire Appalachian trail is on my list of things to do before I die.

I’ve been in there before, it’s pretty sick not gonna lie. You look down through the floor of the glass bottom boats and all you see is nothing. Like you’re looking into the vastness of space. It looks like a portal to another world. That cave has so much historical importance that I could go on for hours. No divers have ever been able to find the end of the flooded caves below the lake. There was a guy who went as far as possible with a sonar device and all he found was more water. If one was to ever dive down there and get lost, they would absolutely never, ever be seen again by human eyes.

Hmmm wow, well entitlement…dats nasty.
Sebring offers a huge service to the world, IMO. And is continuing to do so, while going through personal struggles. The fact that he spoke up and shared w us some what’s going on is a positive thing. I admire someone who can admit when they are having a hard time and could use a helping hand. I wish the man and his family all the best.

If that’s the conclusion you’ve reached, it may have been wiser to settle on that decision in the privacy of your own mind and not post the rest of what you said…
