Let's see if I can help you...
Your pkg was scanned in Santa Cruz and placed in a Oakland Hub trailer.
Next physical scan shows arrival in Columbia, SC airpark where the pkg was linked to an air container "igloo".
The igloo was loaded aboard an AirBus destined for Louisville.
The AirBus arrived and was unloaded in Louisville.
The package was cleared electronically by British Customs, but shows no physical scan of leaving US Customs.
My thought is that it is still in the Customs area, and some government employee has not released it for departure. I can see employee ID's who handled it, igloo ID's, plane tail numbers, etc, but I don't think I should post them here.
I have a contact at SDS who is looking for the package. Another contact at Customs has left for the day and will not be available until the morning. I will try to increase the intensity in the AM.
Also, I have checked Overgoods, but need additional details to execute a more thorough search...but I'm still betting our friends in Customs have it sitting in some corner.
Thanks Gadget, and all others who have posted - very much appreciated. You're the side of UPS that people should hear and see more about.
In terms of more details about the contents I've attached some photos of the items and as much details about part numbers as possible:
HD 1: Seagte Barracuda ST34371W. Apple Logo. 080 Lot Number.
HD 2: No model details known. Will be a SCSI disk, prob with Apple logo on it somewhere.
Flash ROM Chips: In a little 'pouch'. 2 stickers - one reads 341S0396 ODD. The other 341S0395 EVEN.
ROM SIMM: Looks like a memory chip. Has 8 squareish chips on, and 2 small green handles on either end.
In terms of the package being cleared electronically by British Customs - does this only happen when the package has entered US customs, or can it happen much earlier before reaching the international hub?
Thanks again for your help - and i hope it does turn up (but I do appreciate it's like looking for a needle in a haystack).
James.
