Zip code mistake. Should I be concerned?

I'm not freaking out, but I'm a little apprehensive. Not sure if I have a reason to be paranoid...

I recently have had a number of orders going to my drops address at once. So far, no problems, out of 10-15 orders in the last 5 or 6 months. Smoooooth sailing.

I live in the U.S. Recently I ordered some XTCs from Germany and in the info it said it would get there faster if I put the 4-digit zip code extension on the address. So I looked up the extension online (double checked on google maps and smartystreets) and got, let's call it, 1234. I filled out the address, everything right, and zip code XXXXX-1234. Encrypted it and was good to go.

Today, I decided to look at some bills and boring business mail to my drops address and discovered, to my unpleasant surprise, that the correct 4-digit extension is actually, let's say, 5678.

The XTC order was shipped right around the time the German postal strike ended, so that could have affected it as well, however it took 3 full weeks to get to me. It obviously was ok, because it made it there, no CD or raid or anything. But perhaps, could it have gotten re-scrutinized because of the address mistake and that mistake noted and logged on a computer?

Now, what I'm worried about is I still have a couple more orders en route which may have XXXXX-1234 as the zip code. I also have had a couple orders arrive which may have had XXXXX-1234 as the zip code. I can't remember which was which, but I put in four orders all around the same time, two domestic, two international. I put the 1234 zip code extension on 2 or 3 of them, and left the other 1 or 2 with just the XXXXX zip code. Can't exactly remember, but I know it was a mixture of both.

Two have arrived so far, two remain. One international and one domestic arrived. I think one of them may have had the wrong zip code extension... Not sure. Got rid of the packaging already.

I'm almost positive that the outstanding international order (MDMA from Germany, different vendor) has XXXXX-1234 as the zip code.

What I'm most worried about is the outstanding domestic order: Ketamine from maddyjane. She claims 2-7 business day shipping, (2-3 on average) and her reviews all say fast shipping. It's been ~10 days since it was marked "shipped"...

I'm hoping the package didn't get seized if it had the incorrect 1234 zip code extension. Can anyone speak to maddyjane's stealth?? Could a domestic package get opened because of a repeated zip code mistake like this?

I also just put in a domestic cocaine order (TrapHouse, a small personal use quantity) but at least I put the correct XXXXX-5678 zip code on it this time. I'm hoping this won't be an issue either...

How concerned/cautious do you think I need to be?? I know that USPS sorts millions of mail a day and zip code extension mistakes must happen all the time. Still, should I be worried?

TL;DR: I put the wrong 4-digit zip code extension on a couple orders, some of which arrived, but one from Germany took a while. Now I'm waiting an abnormally long time on a domestic order that may have the wrong zip... Should I be concerned?

Learn your fucking zip code before using it to order illegal narcotics through the federal postal system.

lol, if you got the 5 digit zip right you have nothing to worry about. I even got the 5 digit zip wrong once on a pack and didn't realize it until it was already in the mail. it still found its way to me. just so you know I'm not talking out of my ass, here's some info from wiki

and today the plus-four code is not required. In general, mail is read by a multiline optical character reader (MLOCR) that almost instantly determines the correct ZIP+4 code from the address—along with the even more specific delivery point—and sprays an Intelligent Mail barcode (IM) on the face of the mail piece that corresponds to 11 digits—nine for the ZIP+4 code and two for the delivery point.

Basically, the entire process is automated and they're seen hundreds of millions of mistakes in the past. The machine will be able to tell what address the pack was supposed to go to and it will be routed appropriately. Don't sweat it.

Lol a vendor once sent my pack to the wrong fucking city and I still got it, as long as the 5 digit zip is right it'll be fine

It shouldn't matter, the plus 4 is extra info to speed up a packages sorting. The USPS should be able to figure it out.

It will probably just take longer. I had this exact same problem with my first order and it reached me a couple days later than it was supposed to.
