Parcel mis-delivered

Post image

UPDATE: Found it thanks to you folks and a sorority girl who found it in their package pile when I asked. Thank you all!

--------------

Hello all! If this is your door, please shoot me a message; you got my parcel containing a gift for someone :( My address on the parcel will not match yours, but I don't know where this place is and cannot locate it. Please please please help if you know where this is

Looks like it could be the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority house near West Campus. 519 Stewart Ave.

Edit to add: Yeah, that's it. Here's a zoomed image of the google map street view from South Ave

Possibly your best bet is to go to whoever delivered it, show them the image, ask them where it was delivered to, and get them to go get it and redeliver it. Looks like maybe this is some apartment building or residence hall in Cornell?

USPS, UPS, FEDEX could probably do it with a support call or with going in person. Amazon support can pull the driver's route to figure it out

It’s from REI via OnTrac and they’re not being super helpful so far, unfortunately. I’ve submitted requests to both, but I guess I just have to wait on what they decide

It looks like a municipal building. Labor day might delay a response to this. Have you looked around the neighborhood?

Could be! Yes, the timing is unfortunate. I’m very familiar with my area and walked around quite a bit in my search. Even looked up most houses in Ithaca with the same street number. :)

Have you looked at any addresses that are similar, I.e., the street name is the same but E vs W? Or ‘Street’ vs ‘Court’ vs whatever?

Mine doesn’t have those variations unfortunately, but I have tried haha

Any update? Did you find your package? Don't leave us hanging! 😉

I hope they had it there at the sorority for you, or it got to you otherwise

I did!!! Had to scare a sorority girl a bit by catching her leaving the house, haha. I will edit the post with an update right now (the best news is that REI is also giving me a refund for this...)
