USPS woes :(

The line was crazy long and I had 100% had to get back to work so I was forced to drop off at the prepaid drop off desk and not get a receipt, otherwise ship it late.
The package has still not been scanned that its in the USPS's possession.
I feel like an idiot, I always get a receipt but couldn't this time.
I have a picture of the tube sitting on the dropoff counter, not sure what good that would do me.
I should have known better. I reeeallly, really, should have known better considering I have been utilizing this very incompetence to my financial advantage.
DAMN. I'm about even now with the USPS.
Touché USPS, Touché.
Tomorrow will be a full month.
No Scan yet.
eBay buyer has been remarkably cool about this but I told him that if it doesn't get scanned by Friday he'll get his refund.
I feel like I have basically no chance with a claim if the package never scanned.
What an incredibly Piece of fudge institution.

he probably already got it 

lol and it was NEVER scanned, not even on delivery? That would be Hilarious
Dat has definitely happened before. Not referring to a person lying about it per se, but a package getting delivered without ever being scanned.

I had that happen once. Buyer confirmed receipt without it ever being scanned. $1200 print, too.
When I'm done ranting about elite power that rules the planet under a totalitarian government that uses the media to keep people stupid, my throat gets parched. That's why I drink Orange Drink. - BH
1.5 Months later and it finally got scanned AT THE drymounting POST OFFICE I DROPPED IT OFF ATThinker wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 7:28 amxangelx wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 5:36 pmI've had this happen to me several times.

If you are mailing ANYTHING to Georgia insure the drymount out of it.
Had 2 Tubes lost for 2 months each this year.
I Also had to refund eBay buyer, then the free tube gets delivered the following week.
Got lucky on that, the print was just over $100.
Orange Trash is destroying the Post Office.
When its dead and ceases to function, they will
privatize.
The only reason we still have a half ass post office is because there are more lucrative opportunities elsewhere.

when one adds USPS + ebay levels of wisdom, it's becoming pretty risky IMO
"ebay already refunded the buyer"
"ebay forced a damage buyback"
"usps sat on my package for 60 days"
that package of mine still hasn't updated and going in the wrong direction
any website that captures all this b.s?
might be an opportunity- blast the post office website
