the continuing saga of the dress

Well, the web site said I should allow 7-10 days for shipping, so I just called to find out where my package was and when it was shipped since I need the dress for this weekend. It was delivered two days after I ordered, Sept. 6, according to their package tracking. Big thumbs-up to Museum Replicas for actually calling UPS to find out where it was; UPS claims that it was delivered on the 6th and left at my front door. Okay now, I cannot remember the last time UPS actually left anything at our door, even when specifically asked to do so; their normal m.o. is to ring the doorbell, wait just long enough to slap the "you didn't answer the door, so we left your package in the rental office" note on the door and then bolt. (I've seen them do it.) There is no place that this package could reasonably be hidden around our door, the shrubbery that is there is very sparse and the package would've easily been seen. So that leaves two options so far as I can tell: 1) UPS didn't actually deliver the package or 2) UPS did deliver it and one of my neighbors took it. Either way, I don't have my dress. I do not at all fault Museum Replicas for this, they've been nothing but helpful to me. UPS however neglected to call me back as they claimed they would, so they're starting with one strike already.
