They responded with the tracking number which confirmed what they said. What I found odd was that the delivery time was shown as 8:22pm. 8:22pm? On a Friday night! Doesn't the 'brown' union turn into pumpkins after 6pm every night?

This has to be code for them because the only other package they've "misdelivered" to me was supposedly delivered after 8pm as well. Even when I called and the rep read the tracking details he sort of paused on the "...at 8:22pm" part. Then he put me on hold. In any case since I'm not the shipper/customer they can't do anything for me until the shipper calls and initiates the investigation.

I paid via paypal immediately after the auction ended.
