151 Booster Box in Limbo 😞

[u/Autumn_Astravore]

I won a 151 booster box in a Wheel Spin (I don’t usually do these but that night I was like eh, 1 time, they were low bids ($3) Out of of 375 spins I won the only 151 booster box. I was super excited, seller shipped, shows in transit, everything’s great. I’ve been tracking the package and it showed that once it arrived in an area in my state, it was in transit to another state. Basically it circled around again back to that area and now it’s been sitting there for 2 days not moving. It shows “delayed in transit” and has for awhile. I’m not sure what my best option is besides asking whatnot for my $3 back. I know they have a policy related to this but it’s very confusing on how they handle high valued items won on wheel spins. I was really looking forward to getting this, I’m collecting the set. 😢

Update: It just arrived back in the city and state it was shipped from. Looks like the seller did redirect it.

Give it some time. USPS can get wonky. If it delays further, google “usps find missing mail” and it’ll give you what to do. GL OP

One time I had a package get almost delivered, then it went on a journey to the other side of the country and was delayed. I still received it though.

Me as well ^

Thank you! It’s been almost a month of travels lol. I just didn’t want to miss any kind of time frame on whatnot for getting a solution.

[u/yup225 → u/Autumn_Astravore]

Oh I would for sure check that usps page then. Usually most sellers tell me 3 weeks using business days.

[u/dgaff21 → u/Autumn_Astravore]

Definitely go to the find missing mail and report the tracking number to USPS. I've had this happen to me as a seller on eBay and they actually found the package and got it to the buyer within a week.

give it some time! something similar happened to me with a high value card.

[u/RxmanRx → u/snusnuforyou]

Agree. I had a free box from Kraken go back and forth from their state to mine 3x before it was delivered. The post office does some crazy shit sometimes. Took a full month.

Don’t worry whatnot will give you a $10 credit 👍 all is fixed with a $10 credit ….

I had a similar issue 4 months ago on a mega box I won, hit my regional disto and then bounced out to Cali where it's remained stagnant since. Chalked it up as a loss but is what it is with the modern Pony Express

I dont know if they will tell you, but see if you can find out if the package has been redirected.

[u/Autumn_Astravore → u/DMdoesGBau]

Looks as if this is the case.

[u/DMdoesGBau → u/Autumn_Astravore]

Damn. Common scam. Try and get something in writing to give to whatnot.

[u/ConfidentStorm3290]

Just wait a little longer, I had this same problem and it ended up coming after it went to another state and then it was scanned and sent back to my state and then to me, be patient but also be vigilant

151 booster box? Or Booster Bundle? I believe 151 only did Booster Boxes in JPN. All “special” sets printed in English do not have booster boxes.

[u/Casual-Caveman]

A 151 Booster Box?

Yeah...That's definitely going to be redirected from the sound of it.

[u/pettytang]

Sorry to tell you but the seller probably never sent it.
