As for the package: I suppose that either he changed address (and it's not common in here to let postal office know about that and redirect packages, so maybe he didn't do that) or it might get stuck in customs office - I had similar situation in the past with package from China (the package was kept in customs office for over a month without anyone notifying me and then returned to sender with a note similar to "recipient unknown/not found")... But I would rather say the former is more possible then the latter (however that's my personal oppinion).
