Right over the top of my head. Carry on.
I think Squander was the seller in this case, not the buyer.
As I track a packages progress during shipping I always screenshot the scan locations each day or more frequently. Every so often they will magically edit the previous scanned locations.
The label I am thinking of (and accepted by the contract carriers) says "ORM-D Small arms cartridges" in a blue box with a rectangle.
The first thing to have done would be to contact the seller and explain the situation. Many/most good companies would make you whole.
UPS destroyed a recent package that was to have contained 40 boxes of Aquila 22LR SV and used a lot of tape making the box shippable again but short 12, 50 rd boxes (must have made a nice mess to sweep up). I contacted Midway USA, they asked for me to send photos if I had them, I did and they are issuing a refund since the ammo is OOS. I always take photos of any damaged package (and would if it had strange labeling) before and as I'm opening it.
It is the seller's responsibility to get the products we buy to us and to make a claim with their shipper if they want to, not ours.
That's an old label. The new one is a diamond shape with solid areas on the top and bottom. It is a generic label with no mention of the actual contents and is used for all ORM-D packages, not just ammo.
Yes, and my understanding is that it is to be phased out at the end of the year in favor of the diamond with shaded black regions.
Surprising that anybody still uses the old rectangle label. The "new" one went into effect years ago, and IIRC just about all the ammo I've ordered the last several years used that one.
I tried upstream myself with the OP, He knows more about shipping than folks that ship everyday...
I made no pretenses of knowing more than anyone else, and I don't think I presented anything incorrect. Here is a link to the phase-out of ORM-D for ground transportation that began in 2011 and ends this year:

I'm pretty sure that's probably illegal.I just shipped some ammo last week with UPS and the guy made me cut the ORMD symbol off the box, said they've had too much trouble with ammo theft, they dont want you marking the boxes anymore.
At this point your best bet would be to notify the shipper and have them initiate a delivery trace on the merchandise.Heard back from UPS. My ammo was supposedly delivered to a address in the 2000 block on our road. The problem? Addresses on this road don't start until 5000. Starting to think our driver just may be a thief.
