It would be interesting to hear the explanation as to why a "delivered" parcel is in a different state. I doubt that there will be any consequences for the carrier. Just a memory glitch, obviously...

I think 01153 is the PO in Hades. I hope there aren't too many Christmas cards in front of your package. The good news is it got a scan and will probably get delivered eventually.

At the end of every day, there is an End of Day report. This report shows every tracking number scanned arrived at unit that is to be delivered that day. Before the Postmaster/Supervisor can leave for the day he must verify that every tracking number has been scanned delivered or attempted. District watches and verifies that the EOD report is completed, if not, the PM gets a call at home and must go find that package/article, and get it delivered/scanned. Heads rolled in my District if you failed to scan an article, accepted, arrived, delivered. I had new a carrier fail to scan a package and I had to go to the address of delivery ask for the label so I could scan it delivered. And yes we had a theft problem in several offices, all out going mail on the same truck for all these offices. Discovered that the relieve driver and his ride along girl friend were stopping and opening mail and keeping the valuable items. The investigation last 6 months before they were caught and arrested.

The new scanners we used in the Postal Service, I retired in 2015, I could look up the carriers location right down to the building they were in. The time they were there which end of the building. Made it easy to know if they were taking a long break, or deviating from the route, to visit there love ones. Technology, is useful but still quite intrusive. Webekin

Update..... The package showed up in Springfield Massachusetts yesterday


I live in northwest CT and a few months ago I sent my tax info to my accountant also in CT. Very often these pieces of mail go out of state to Springfield MA and then back to CT. It took over a week to go about 20 miles and get delivered. When I looked more carefully at the tracking it actually went to Springfield MO not MA

At least that one ended well.

Great news! I had a USPS delivery from the Midwest take 3+ weeks after it had been logged at the initial post office. Went to the east coast, then eventually out west.

Now I am in the same situation as the OP. Email notice says delivered this morning at 9:30 AM, but still nothing as of this evening.
I guess we'll see if it shows up tomorrow or Monday...

Edit to ad: this situation will only stop when people actually go to jail for mail fraud. But I assume "sorry, mistyped delivery notice" will be enough of a defense for a judge to dismiss the case.

As I suspected, the coins arrived today. One day after being "delivered".
I think from now on I better ignore "delivery emails" as they are completely useless.
