USPS woes :(
I had that happened recently, tracking said delivered but nothing showed up and my mailman who I'm "cool" with said he didn't deliver anything
One thing I learned you can do is ask the post office to find out which scanner scanned it as delivered, they can tell exactly who scanned it
In my case a different delivery person scanned the packages, the supervisor asked them where my fudge was and they said "I don't know"
So in the end, I never got my stuff and I had no recourse other than filing a paypal claim which I won.
Either the wrong mailman delivered them to the wrong address or the person who scanned it stole it........

If it's over $200 Paypal requires a signature confirmation. Even if it says delivered you are covered.

Yeah, not sure how much it was insured for (if at all). Will find out. I am normally very careful about these things (i.e. working out how much value to put down, etc.). Just lapsed because I haven't bought international in a long time.

Opened? Geez, that's disturbing. Also, I believe it was sent in a PVC tube. If so, customs might be inspecting it? Not sure.summoner wrote:If it helps, I had the Mondo Halloween vinyl show as delivered last week and it was nowhere to be found. It finally showed up (opened) yesterday.

I had my Metal Metropolis (reg) shown as delivered to my old address in Houston, a few weeks before I even asked DHM to check up on it as I'm reasonably relaxed about delivery. Too relaxed it seems.
Luckily I was able to drive over and locate it as it was an apt office it got delivered to and it was just sitting in a pile in the back. Another time I had a $2K OG sitting on the door step for 2 days before I grabbed it, no sig required
Point is, 9 times outta 10 it'll be fine, most folk don't consider prints a lucrative option and it'll find it's way to you...

I had this happen to me a couple weeks back. Apparently my area got a new mailman. The tracking said delivered so I waited a couple days and when nothing showed up I went to my local post office. Sure enough they brought it from the back, I asked why it said delivered but it was still there? According to the mailman I had refused the package and it was on its way to get returned to the sender. I have no clue how this happened since I had that whole week off and was the only one home. I would definitely go check if maybe this happened with yours as well.

Yeah, I stopped by the post office this evening, but they did not have my tube. They're closed tomorrow, so I'm gonna ask my carriers on Friday (and Saturday, if needed) if they recall dropping off a tube on 11/25. Will most likely stop by the post office over the weekend as well, just to have them check "the back" again.
It's entirely possible that my address was mislabeled, or the postman hit the wrong button on his tracking device, so hopefully it'll turn up soon.

You know you could make a little more than $100 if you just sold it to Jojo.hellosir wrote:I've got it. Send me $100 and I'll re-ship
