F: And what would you estimate it's value at (thats when we start worryin)
US: Ohhh....about $10,000
F: oh..........okay (now whats goin on). And what would it look like if it was broken open?
US: Well.....theres a lot of robotics stuff. And it has a lot of steel arms and a controller platform on plexiglass and steel. And some motors and stuff.
F: Okay we'll let you know the status of your shipment......(that phone call went nicely)

don't worry...they called back later and found it
Well I can tell you that MY stomach would be in knots until the follow up call confirming they found it.
