I know this maybe doesn't work exactly with this part of the forum but I thought more people who might know the answer will be looking through here... Okay, so I get sent a package from my SO nearly 8 weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived he sent it international airmail but without a tracking number. I've heard stories of mail getting stolen and all this terrible stuff and I REALLY hope it didn't happen to me I was getting sent one of his sweaters ( for cuddles!) and a letter. I didn't think that this was worth very much other than obvious sentimental value to him and I. What do you guys think?.... Thanks!!! <3

It's possible that it didn't get stolen but got lost instead. I actually have a ridiculously hard time getting anything to or from Canada for some reason. O.o;; And I live in the U.S., but when I was sending things to Australia, it took around 2-3 weeks to get there from California. So maybe it got lost?

I also did send a package to my girl. A tshirt to use for here matura. As a suprise. But when i expected it would arrive i told her about it. To look for it at the post. But now its already more then 3 weeks later and still not arrived. The time before i sended something it was there in a week. Or even less.... But yeah, maybe it will arrive. I hope it

I'm really sorry, but I think 8 weeks is WAY too long I'm betting it got lost somewhere. When I send to Finland, in only takes about a week through regular mail, except once when it got flagged in customs. Even then, he had it in three. It could still show up, but it could be a while.
It's always worth getting a tracking number, even if it costs a little more. I hope you'll get it eventually, that sucks.Our separation of each other is an optical illusion of consciousness. ~Albert Einstein

I wouldn't take chances on the mail. I had a package I sent to my ex get lost once and it was very disappointing. I'd rather pay for tracking because honestly Canada Post is notorious for misplacing things. I really do hope you get it eventually!“The ties that binds us are sometimes impossible to explain.

i forgot to add that he put cologne in there too... would that be a factor? could it be at customs or some silly thing? i really hope so, that was a really special sweater to him, and it was a really big deal for him to give it to me...sigpic
Distance tears couples apart. But if we can get through over a year without even meeting... Thats special...

Oh no, I'm very sorry to hear that After 8 weeks though I'd say the chance of it turning up is pretty slim - I mailed my SO a care package last year which never arrived either. I'd put in a claim for a lost item now if you haven't done so already; your parcel might still turn up at some point in future (you never know!) but... it's definitely worth paying that small amount extra for a tracking number in future, for your peace of mind's sake.
