I ordered an Epiphone Toby from Sam Ash through Reverb. It was supposed to arrive Wednesday. It's been out for delivery now for three days. Bets on if the bass is actually on the truck or lost in the ether?

NBD Delayted Again and Again

Is it FedEx or USPS? If so, they're in cahoots in my area. And USPS will swing by with it when they feel like it.... and not a minute before.
My bass has been travelling USA -> UK for 10½ weeks. Perhaps it's organising an underground army within USPS and has intercepted and recruited yours.
A strap and set of strap locks I'd ordered from Sweetwater on April 22 arrived today. it was sent VIA USPS 3 day shipping.
To Sweetwater's credit, I'd long since received a replacement since the US Postal service admitted that they lost an entire container of packages back on April 25th. Only hassle I have left is for Sweetwater to get back to me on how to return the extra stuff that I finally received today.

Some variation on "carrots" is the traditional talkbass "non-answer," roughly equivalent to "meh"
Practically any/everything I've ordered online for the past year has been delayed or stayed on some type of "pending" status way longer than it was intended. But it's always shown up, eventually.
Glad it finally arrived unscathed.

They will probably tell you to go ahead and keep it, not worth it for them to ship it back and resell it. I had a similar issue and that was my result. Good luck!
