My worst shipping misadventure of something of value was a purchase of expensive ham radio gear. The items were shipped via UPS fully insured with expedited delivery. After a month of delivery hanging fire, insurance payment had been approved. Seller had double boxed the gear and the outer box's address info had been obliterated during shipment. The inner box was formerly used in a Lands End shipment. It somehow was delivered to Lands End which alerted UPS of the SNAFU and was able to come up with the seller's name and contact info from a bar code on the inner box and I eventually received the items.
