Broad Arrow: The fire you referred to is a most unfortunate incident. However, from your comments it does not appear the carrier (USPS) was culpable here. I, for one, will never ship anything via UPS (United Parcel Service), unless a buyer insists on it. Over the years I have heard more horror stories of damaged, stolen, etc. collectables sent via this carrier. This includes signatures of delivery which were falsified as "proof" items were delivered, to cover up internal theft.
On the other hand, I have never had a problem with the USPS. As for the missing bayonets, I would be hounding whomever is responsible for overseeing the disposition of the damaged mail & parcels, insisting they produce your items or evidence they were destroyed. I think it is a lot of B.S. them telling you they will destroy all mail just because they cannot see or read a delivery address. You can provide proof the bayonets were bought & shipped to you, so if they run across them, they can complete delivery...
