history: I sent a parcel to my cousin recently and it never arrived. It cost me $50  I sent a parcel to my cousin recently and it never arrived. It cost me $50  Wow! Some delivery driver must be excited about their latest acquisition!  I did think that it had probably been stolen but I try to see the best in people so I hoped it had just been delayed. That was 2 months ago and it still has not arrived. Maybe it is time to move on
current: I didn't mean to sound so flippant. That is a lot of money to lose. Was the item itself expensive also?
next: yes it was a gift for his wedding. I have contacted the delivery service but they have thousands of parcels and it takes a long time to locate a single one. I don't know what to do next
