Lost my phone on Saturday at the Crater during Ahee. 100% suspected it was stolen as it was not recovered or found until after Day 3/had no location update until after leaving the campgrounds. Hooray! Phone found and transferred to the 'Liff Happens' group.

Identified the phone on their site. Paid for shipping. Have not been waiting 7 days for an update on the USPS label they provided for my shipment. Status has not updated from 'Shipping Lbl created. USPS awaits item'

Reached out to Liff multiple times about actually dropping off the package and providing some sort of update. No response.

Now I am stuck in a situation where my phone I lost during Lost Lands and, as of now, have not had access to for 12 days, was found, claimed and I paid for shipping to get it delivered back to me is YET AGAIN lost, but this time in a limbo between the group that claimed to have it and their local USPS office.

The losing of the phone is 100% on me. The 'hey we found it and ship it back to you' offer that I took to retrieve the phone has not been fulfilled, 100% on Liff, who has not responded to emails. Still stuck without a phone and, once again, without an idea of where my phone is in the world as it has died since this group has had it and location services is no longer functioning with this phone.

I swear if location services come back and this phone ends up in China I am going to go ape shit ballistic.

Ok. Thank you for coming to my frustrated 37-year-old-man-feeling-isolated-without-his-mobile-device Ted talk.
