Talk About The Post!

I did a trade in the very beginning of December where I mailed a package from Reno to San Francisco (which is only a 5 hour drive). The package never arrived, so I sent another one which got there in 2 days. Well yesterday (4 1/2 months later) the 1st package came back to me return mail. The reason it didn't get to where it was going was because I had written the address sloppy so 16th ave looked like 10th. I am amazed it came back to me at all... but 4 1/2 months later. That is just too fucking bizzare!!!!!

That is slow.. I orderd the signature drumsticks from Metclub 2 years ago. and it took me 6 month's to get them to sweden. That is bizzare.. And when i finaly got them the package were torn up, and all shitty. the sticks were dirty and smelled awful :S

Oh, I just fucking hate postal services... I sold a computer once on ebay, sent it out to some place in northern Germany... it did not turn up there within two weeks, so I requested an investigation. The last place that damn thing has been seen was somewhere in southern Germany and nobody had a clue how it got there or where it was now... four weeks later (I already transfered the money back to the buyer), I got a notice from my local post office, stating my computer has been found and I can pick it up there

I sold that crappy old thing again with a 20 Euro loss, and the post told me they are not responsible for consequential loss

well, i guess someone has to say something nice about the united states postal service... and how sad that it has to be me, haha!!! when my daughter and i moved back to australia, we sent everything we owned through the usps because it worked out so much cheaper than via a removal company. we were told 6 - 12 weeks for delivery because we used surface mail, and everything showed up within 8 weeks.
there was no major damage (only cd cases and they're easily replaced) and the only boxes that were opened by customs were the ones with my cd's in... 3 out of 30... so that was pretty damn good!!
and nothing got stolen either...
