Tracking Says "Delivered;" Package Not Received

Occasionally a carrier will scan a package as delivered before it arrives at the final destination. When this happens, the package is usually delivered within the next few business days.

If you've waited a couple of days and you still don't have the package:

  • See if someone else accepted delivery. Check with household members, neighbors, building managers, the mail room, front desk, and anyone else who may have accepted the delivery.
  • Look around the delivery location. Carriers sometimes leave packages in a safe, hidden place like on a side porch, in/around your garage, or behind bushes.
  • Look for a notice of attempted delivery. You may find an attempted delivery notice in your mailbox or P.O. Box or on your door. Follow the instructions on that notice to request redelivery or pick up the package.
  • Contact the carrier. Ask if they have additional information about the package's location. (Have your tracking or delivery confirmation number handy.) If you package was shipped via UPS, they may be able to hold the package at their local hub for you to pick up. You can call UPS and see if this is possible.

Most packages arrive by the estimated delivery date listed in . If you don't receive the package by then, please allow an additional day or two for the package to be delivered. Please note that carriers may deliver packages up until 8 p.m.

  • For more information regarding your country's custom policies, please contact your local customs office.

 

Combining Shipments

When possible, we try to combine multiple orders into the same shipment. This helps us reduce the number of packages we need to send to you, so you receive fewer packages and have less packaging material to dispose of when you receive your orders.

 

We try to combine multiple orders into the same shipment if the orders meet the following criteria:

  • Multiple orders are placed through the same customer account
  • The orders are being shipped to the same address.
  • Items from each order are located at the same fulfillment center.
  • The orders are shipping at around the same time.

 

There are some cases when we won't be able to combine shipments. For instance, we may not be able to combine the following types of orders:

  • Orders that can't be shipped from the same fulfillment center to meet your promised delivery date.
  • Orders shipping from different fulfillment centers.
  • Orders being shipped to different addresses.
  • Orders being shipped to an international shipping address.

BACKORDERED ITEMS

Backordered items cannot be shipped at the time an order is placed, but will ship at a later date. When a backordered item is selected, we will provide you with an approximate shipping date. Please be aware that backorder dates are approximate and subject to change. If you have selected an item that is on backorder, you have the option to order it, or select an alternate size or color if available.

  • If items are backordered, the total shipping and handling charges will be allocated proportionally and charged as the merchandise is shipped.
  • Please note that the total shipping and handling charge will not increase.
  • All backordered items ship out via Standard Delivery.

 

Undeliverable Package

Occasionally packages are returned to us as undeliverable. When the carrier returns an undeliverable package to us, we issue a full refund.

We are unable to re-ship orders that are returned to us as undeliverable. If you would still like to purchase items that were undeliverable, you are welcome to place a new order on our Web site.

If you suspect your order cannot be delivered as addressed and you have not received confirmation of its return or refund after 2 weeks from the estimated delivery date, please contact us.

 

Why Was My Package Undeliverable?

Our carriers may deem a package undeliverable for one of the following reasons:

 

Incorrect Address.

If the address is incorrect or outdated, the package is typically returned to us by the carrier or the unintended recipient. Please double-check your address carefully when placing a new order.

To remove an outdated or incorrect address from your account, click the "Manage address book" link in My Account. Click either the Edit button or the Delete button above the address you want to change or remove.

Carrier Does Not Deliver to the Address.

The U.S. Postal Service does not deliver to some addresses. If you also have a PO Box address, it's best to use that address for your orders. All orders with "PO BOX" in the address are automatically shipped via U.S. Mail. Also, if you (or your office) have put in a request for address forwarding, please note that the U.S. Postal Service only forwards first-class mail and magazines, and does not forward packages.

Address Format.

If a post office box address was entered in a format our system does not recognize, the package may be shipped through a carrier that cannot deliver to a post office box. To ensure that such packages are routed through the proper carriers, please enter the box number as "PO BOX" followed by the number. Also, if you're a private mailbox holder (use a local commercial mail receiving agency), do not use "Box" for your mailbox number, instead use # or PMB. This will ensure that your address is not mistaken to be a P.O. Box, and that orders can ship to you via means other than the U.S. Postal Service.

Other Address Problems.

If the order is being shipped to a prison, there may be delivery restrictions associated with the items or shippers. These restrictions are determined by the penitentiary and may vary.

In rare cases, it is also possible that the address label became illegible during the shipping and handling process, or that the carrier made a mistake and left the package at a different address then what was printed on the label.

Failed Delivery Attempts.

Most of our carriers make three attempts to deliver a package. Packages that contain more than $1,300 of merchandise will always require a signature; otherwise, it is generally up to the driver's discretion to determine whether a signature is required. If the driver feels it is best to obtain a signature and no one is present to accept the delivery after three attempts, the package will be returned to us.

Refused by Recipient.

If a gift recipient is not expecting a gift, they may refuse the package if they believe it was sent to them in error. If you still want to send these items, you may want to let the recipient know that a surprise is on the way.

Items Not Eligible for International Shipping.

Not all items sold on SpikeAngel are eligible for international shipping. Any item that is not eligible for international shipping will be noted as such on the product’s detail page.

Recycling Our Packaging Materials

Spike Angel recognizes the importance of shipping your items so that they arrive in perfect condition, and we use a variety of packaging materials to protect the products you've ordered. But we also care about the environment, as do many of our customers. That's why we make sure our packaging materials are recyclable, and, where possible, made from recycled materials themselves.
