Your best bet would probably be to talk to a postal worker. They may be able
to trace down your package.

You're no doubt right. But although costly, I've better to do with my
limited time. Which kinda feels good I'm getting to the money's not
so important stage in my life, I guess.

I got to that stage too fortunately.
In 2017, I was packaged out, passively tried to find a job, but didn't.

I sold my house, moved to my cottage on a river. Then my spouse and I bought
a home in Madeira Portugal to spend winters at. We had a "is this coming to
Madeira?" contest and I ended up selling a lot of my collectibles including a
bunch of brand new Lego sets to help with the down payment and renovations.

Eventually we will rent it out when we are not there, until we move.
Now, I sit in a small but amazing cottage and just sort bulk lego with my dogs.

His best bet is to not order more boots.

Indeed, his wife should kick him with her new boots. For spending too much money.

True. Sometimes, I order something, only to realize that it's not really
what I want.

  That is to say, for years now I've take flack for NOT buying what I need
or should buy. I think they call it "nickel-nosed"

Indeed. The distinction between wants and needs is rather arbitrary.

Knowing how this sort of thing usually goes, I would not have dropped of the
package and only given up what I was delivered in exchange for what should have
been delivered.
