    Many USPS locations now offer with their PO box service the ability to utilize the actual street address syntax with your box # so any shipping carrier service can deliver to you. This is the best route to go as the destination will be blatantly obvious to any potential drivers who are not familiar with the area especially versus say dealing with condo/apartment type complexes or a business/industry/strip mall type destinations. 

    I'm going to check into this for my area. Thanks!

    I hope that you called Heritage as well.  Heritage has the ability to put pressure on a delivery service and in turn the driver they way Comiclink once did for me.  I am not at all opposed to someone on the Fed Ex team losing their job over this.  The drivers are either allowed or take it upon themselves to sign for parcels themselves and then leave them wherever.  They did this with my copy of Superman 3 which they delivered to someone else across town.  They did it with a high value action figure last summer that went down the block, and worse, they did it with one of my parent's medication. 

    All three were located and recovered or brought to me but it took some not-so-nice pushing on my part and actions that many would consider threatening to menacing. 

     

    This is the second package in two months that has gone AWOL. The first was delivered to a beauty supply store half a city block away. The manager there called Heritage who called me and asked me to go get it. I was happy too as it was much better than the package disappearing. I'm going to give it one last try on Monday to see if I can shake some action loose on FedEx's part.

    Not sure if this is regional but sometimes fedex delivers packages to my local us postal service branch who in turn then deliver them to my address. Might be the case with you too, hopefully 

    I appreciate the sentiment but Fedex has told Heritage it is gone. I really am bummed as I rarely buy things just for resale. They always go into my personal collection for at least a while.

    Well, poop. Fedex lost my books. I have them shipped to a shipping company so that they do not sit on my front porch for a few hours. Instead, Fedex just delivers them to some random business and cannot locate them. Just to be clear, not Heritage's fault. These are the golden age books that are missing and presumed stolen.
