I Paid my Pal pal bill already. so this coin is paid for. So my question is , When do I start to worry, What is my time line to get my money back? |

I purchased a few items December 9, 2020... Still waiting...
Vendor says to give it a couple more weeks as the USPS is still digging out from the holidays and the election.

I had one take the long way here back in December, it took over two full weeks (15 days) to get here, so do not give up just yet.

I ordered 4 coins from ebay, the last one shipped was the first one I received only took 10 days, the other 3 I got a week later. The one from Florida was 10 days, the one from Ohio was 17 days. |

Or like a package for my wife, it's been at the post office for 3 days. I called them today and they are finally moving the packages from Saturday (1/2), I should get it tomorrow. No packages, no mail, no magazines.

yes, mail is way behind, on ebay you have 30 days to file a claim, after the latest date it is expected to arrive.. I would ask that all involved to be patient,, USA mail is slower than we are expected to count on..I mailed a package to the usa just before christmas and it sat at the Chicago hub, for nearly 14 days, before it broke free, then was delivered 4 days later.. If it is tracked, it will get to you.. |

The wonders of modern parcel post!
40 years ago, I received a telex that my coin from London to Sydney was about to be dispatched.
It arrived on my doorstep 5 days later.

It sounds like this was a shipment with tracking.
You have pretty good protection in this instance.
I would give the seller at least another week.

It's odd that those junk mail catalogs get through.
