Post keeps going missing but only items from Etsy - anyone else had this?

So I use Etsy quite a lot and things are always going missing. Since last Christmas I've had 4 items from (different) sellers not turn up. Etsy sellers always replaced or refunded so definitely not them but it's only ever packages from Etsy, anything else is fine. Anyone any idea why this might be or had similar?

Do you pay by paypal for it - and if so, have you double checked the address you have in paypal? (or stored in an Etsy account?) Some sites use stored addresses even if you think you've typed in the correct one again in the delivery information.

Do you get other parcels, or are these the only parcels you get - maybe it's a different company delivering parcels. If it's Hermes or Yodel, good luck. They're terrible. Others might be better at sorting things out.

Addresses are definitely right - it's all very bizarre. All seem to be with Royal Mail and untrackable too.

For 4 years straight my daughter didn’t get her birthday card from my mum…. Postman was stealing and knew many birthday cards contained cash

He was prosecuted

I used to be a member of a DVD by post rental club, the DVDs started being a day late and possibly opened.

Then at 6am one Sunday I heard the letterbox go and saw someone walk away down the path - post office workers were watching my films.

Have you considered sending yourself something? Something that wouldn't be pleasant to open? and see if it arrives.

This might work
