birdwell Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 so, my MailMan knows I collect vinyl...has asked me a few questions about it and so on and so forth... I guess when he finds record mailers in his route he just sorts them as they are mine w/o regard to the addy or name on the pack... I opened my door and found a mailer on my front stoop that was supposed to be delivered a block and a half away...no clue what vinyl's inside of the mailer... Do i open it and act as if I never noticed it wasn't mine....or return it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 same thing happened to me. I just went down to the other house and gave it to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Return it. You wouldn't want someone going through your package if the situation was reversed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbypuckett Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 You return it. That's mail fraud and if you got caught you're in serious trouble. Seriously, why are you even asking this? What if someone opened your mail and took things from you? You wouldn't like it. Worst post in the history of this board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danthemjfan23 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 this is a pretty tough one... what if it's a __________ test press or something (i'm assuming most of you will fill that blank with gaslight). i would probably open it out of curiosity, and when it wasn't something incredible, i would drive it over to the house it was supposed to go to, and be like "i collect vinyl too, and i was expecting something, so i didn't even look at who it was addressed to. sorry buddy." he'll probably be so grateful that you brought it to him that he'd give you like 5 or 10 bucks as a reward.

sherlock Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 yeah dude i'd have thoughts about opening it too but it'd definitely be a shitty thing if someone did that to me. return it, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettall Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Easy. Deliver it to the correct address and don't open it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdwell Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 appreciate the feedback (minus those who are too high and mighty for any negative thoughts to ever cross their minds) Just sent the girl a FaceBook message telling her to come and pick it up rather than letting it go all through USPS again...I would just walk it down...but the APT complex is gated up and locked and weird to navigate.

enjoyadrian Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 i'd return it personally. That way you can just say "oh out of curiousity, what did you order?" and get to know what was exactly inside the package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
