I've received parts from greyhound a few times. They will normally call you when the parts arrive and have you pick them up at the terminal.

unless things have changed, they don't really have tracking numbers. They'll just give you a call when the bus arrives with the parts.

Sorry, I don't have an answer as to why he won't respond to you. How far were your parts having to travel?
