UPDATE!

The remaining package arrived to its intended destination.
One parcel seemed to have toured the world.
My friend on the other end (Portland, OR) finally recieved the package.
The package went to the following destinations before arriving in its INTENDED destination: (Item was shipped from Maine)
1. Item arrived in Hawaii for "international scan"
2. Item arrived in Guam due to errors in shipping locale and was to be redirected to the mainland US.
3. Item arrived in London, UK. (Big mystry here!)
4. Item left above for shipping to the US.
5. Item arrived in NY,NY for "redistribution".
6. Item arrives in Denver, CO.
7. Item ships for final destination.
8. 3 days later, item finally leaves Denver, CO.
9. Item arrives at final destination. (Portland, OR)

Total time in transit: (from drop off to arrival)
17 days
Item arrived intact but spoiled. (obviously!)
This package utilized "peanuts".
I tracked this package throughout its journey. Each locale was noted.
I contacted Fed-Ex. They refunded shipping costs and gave a 100.00 "credit" for future shipping.
(they also laughed like all hell!)
I did inform them that the item was "non-critical" and was simply a test.
