Last year, Fedex Lost a Takahashi telescope. Such a shame, it was $6,000 dollar astrophotography telescope that probably ended up on some Facebook Marketplace being sold at junk prices.
This was after I switched from UPS, which lost a Paramoun MX+ Mount, computer and pier accessories.
Both of these were purchased for an astronomy club.
We thought it wouldn't happen again, but alas, Fedex also lost a 3,000 dollar scope (esprit).
USPS has delayed things - and sometimes awfully long.
But i've never had things just vanish with such frequency.
thankfully we insured the purchased but there are so few of these scopes and mounts available and the timelines are so long for procurement we never finished some of those projects. Thx capitalism ;)
