What does he do all the other times it plugs up?

Wait until someone else tries to use it and then blame them.

The tracking number for a package of expensive lolita clothes says that it was delivered to me yesterday. I never saw it. Further bothering of the post office reveals that the delivery driver says he left it in front of my door. In an unlocked apartment building in a large complex. I've cried a lot, dumpster dived, opened a police report, checked craigslist, told the apartment office and asked at the clothing consignment shop across the street. Oh, and taped a note to my door asking the mail carrier to not leave packages outside my door.

I would raise hell with the post office too. Depending on who you bought it from and how, you might be able to get a refund as you never signed for anything. Even if you can't get a refund through the buyer, you might get one through your credit card issuer or paypal if you used either of those to pay.

Priority Mail doesn't require a signature, so there's nothing I can do there. The seller was just some girl in Virginia. And looking at PayPal's claim policy, I don't see a way to file a claim that was not the seller's fault.

You are allowed to file a claim through paypal for a non-received item, but yes the seller will be responsible in that case.

I would seriously beat someone at the post office until money comes out.

....I think I will actually ask to see the policy where it is procedure to leave a package outside a door in an unsecured building. The mail deliverer I talked to today thinks that's wrong.

Mongrel · « **Reply #2947 on:** September 08, 2012, 02:45:59 PM »

The fact that you have a clear note on your door specifically telling them not to do that may actually matter too, so I would definitely bring that up.

She put the note on the door after the fact, though.

Check and see if she got insurance. If not you might be screwed, as I don't think priority has any obligations that they need to meet in order to leave it at your house. We frequently get stuff left right on our front lawn and aside from asking them to hold the package before it come to your local post office, there really isn't anything you can do if the sender didn't get insurance.

I think you should file a claim with paypal. The seller should have paid for insurance or used a different shipping service. Priority mail is notorious for theft - both in their offices and at delivery locations - and no reputable shipper should be using it to ship anything valuable. From my experience, priority mail is a service you use to ship heavy, cheap shit. You should be using signature-required UPS for something valuable.

This isn't a retailer, this is some girl in Virginia.

My rhomboid muscle is all fucked up for some damned reason. It's made my right shoulder joint ache for literally the entire day.

I swear my life has just become the litany of random aches and pains that come along and cripple me for a day or three before vanishing again.

Brentai · « **Reply #2953 on:** September 10, 2012, 09:23:17 PM »

Sounds like my sex life.

The good news is: that probably doesn't mean anything bad.
The bad news is: it's never getting better.

Once I went to the hospital for an appendicitis scare before deciding to just keep my bloody mouth shut unless a) I am actually bleeding or b) more than 3 symptoms of a heart attack.

And it turns out most pains do go away if you ignore them!
