Both packages were safely re-directed to their intended recipient. He was delayed in replying to me because he was on vacation or something that week, and one of the senders was simply in no rush to get back to me, but in the long run, both senders emailed me new UPS labels to print out and affix to the boxes. One had me send it back to them, one had me send it straight to the buyer. Emailed him the other day to be sure both got to him, and they did.
