Lost Packages: Please contact me immediately if you feel your item has been lost. I rely on USPS tracking to determine if a package is lost/missing. If your package is marked as delivered by the USPS, but is not received, please contact your local post office and check with neighbors, roommates, and/or family members. Speaking directly to your mail carrier may also be helpful. I am not responsible for items lost by USPS or after delivery.
