Contact the police dept, and have them fax you a police report to fill out for mail fraud charges, or direct you to the agency that can. Although I believe that mail fraud is a federal offence in the states and falls under FBI jurisdiction.
I had the same thing happen to me over ebay a few years ago, putting together my 'nam gear. Bought some webbing and long story short, "it's shipping out today, oh my son shipped it to the wrong address, we sent it out a month ago you should have it by now"....
It took me sending him an email threatening to follow thru on charges, and amazing! a week later my package shows up, postmarked
after that email..
