Sometimes stuff that is supposed to go by air end up going surface, in

USPS eddy current where it sits in the US postal system for ages

happened to me. I think the intended recipient will get it before you
do, otherwise if the address is way off, you will probably get it back
eventually.

And not just USPS. Good old brown(UPS) delivered my telescope tripod,
but not the telescope. It was lost for another three weeks. UPS was
unresponsive. It was apparently sitting in their Oklahoma City
facility for a while before someone thought it would be a good idea to
send it back to the merchant. The merchant sent it again.
