What is the difference in meaning between:

> (1) お調べいただいた **上{うえ}** 、注文通りの品をお送り下さいますよう、お願いします。  
>  (2) お調べ **いただき** 、注文通りの品を送り下さいますよう、お願いします。

I understand #2.

> (2) Upon your looking into the matter, please send me the stuff I ordered.

I can't figure-out how to voice " _いただいた上、_ " in English in my head. I want a
strict translation, not a paraphrase. Nothing is clicking for me, but this is
my best try:

> (1) Please look into the matter, and then based on what (I expect) you to
> find, send me the stuff I ordered.

Also, I am seriously hoping that " _で_ " was dropped off the end of "いただいた上
**で** 、".

"お調べいただいた上、" vs. "お調べいただき、..."
You're right. The "で" has been dropped off the end of "いただいた上で、".

Check this page (<http://www.jgram.org/pages/viewOne.php?tagE=uede>) for other
examples, including a note lower down that this can be dropped.

## X as a prerequisite for Y:

X is what must be done before Y.

> X いただいた上、Y してください。
>
> After (and only after) doing X, do Y.

* * *

## X and or then Y:

The order of completing X and Y is not strictly emphasized.

> X いただき、Y してください。
>
> Do X, and do Y.

* * *

See how (1) is asking a little more explicitly that you actually read the
document before signing:

>   1. お読みいただいた上、こちらにご署名{しょめい}ください。
>

>
> After reading (the document), sign your name here.
>
>   2. お読みいただき、こちらにご署名{しょめい}ください。
>

>
> Read (the document), and sign your name here.

It would be weird to say (1) when the order doesn't matter:

>   1. フォークはこちらに置{お}いていただいた上、スプーンはこちらに置{お}いてください。
>

>
> After putting the forks here, put the spoons here.
>
>   2. フォークはこちらに置{お}いていただき、スプーンはこちらに置{お}いてください。
>

>
> Put the forks here, and put the spoons here.
