Shinji Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Something is wrong with the labelThe people all said the label is fine because it's scanning, they said someone at the post office screwed up somehow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonbeams Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 I must admit, I was wrong. The original intention of this thread was to highlight the package abuse that occurs during USPS transit. I've had 2 records arrived with holes going through both ends of the package (and the record inside), many of us have experienced broken records, and a lot of us had items simply disappear. On two occasions, I received records in the shape of bowls, both 4 weeks late. But it also appears there is some major transit fumbling occurring as well.

boops_popmarket Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 The last few packages I've gotten have had holes of various depth plunged into them (see my previous posts for the granddaddy of holes). Last time, it wasn't as bad but it warped the record. Two times before that there was no damage to the record- just a slightly indented mailer surface.

Can't find your posts, but were the holes like someone jammed a letter opener through the entire package and record? Both times, that's what it looked like.

boops_popmarket Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Using the USPS, I've had packages not get scanned for 5-6 business days. It usually shows up at the destination post office when they scan it there. Not sure if UPS is similar. Give them a call and ask what your options are.

SBarry Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I sold back a textbook to Amazon. Dropped it off at UPS on the 15th, and it looks like they never scanned it or anything, because tracking only shows when the label was created. I'm not sure what to do about that.

marc32137 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I sold an item on eBay last week and the PO I dropped it off at scanned it as delivered instead of accepted and the tracking hasn't changed since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futures Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 The post office should forward it. She says she lives in the same town. I don't see it taking longer than a day to fwd to her new address. I just hope she doesnt get it, see that the tracking never updated, then try to tell me she never received it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Just had this delivered today. I've never had a package arrive this damaged. The record looks ok, but there's a loud thump when it plays and there's what looks like almost a crease. Almost like the disc was bent almost to the point of snapping.

Gumbo72203 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Nothing beats my copy of Rosetta's "A Determinism of Morality" on CD, which was melted. And then repacked, and sent to me with a note that said "We damaged your item." The Cd case fucking MELTED. I don't even know how it happened. They must have gotten it caught in between some belts somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooks Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Not a record this time, but normal USPS fuckboy shenanigans on a package I'm waiting for. Shipment Activity Location Date & Time Business Closed NEW YORK, NY 10199 April 25, 2016 6:14 pm Business Closed NEW YORK, NY 10199 April 23, 2016 8:04 am Arrived at Post Office NEW YORK, NY 10199 April 23, 2016 5:37 am Departed USPS Destination Facility METRO, NY April 22, 2016 10:18 pm Arrived at USPS Destination Facility METRO, NY April 22, 2016 10:18 pm Departed USPS Facility PORTLAND, OR 97218 April 21, 2016 10:50 pm Arrived at USPS Origin Facility PORTLAND, OR 97218 April 21, 2016 8:43 pm Accepted at USPS Origin Facility PORTLAND, OR 97227 April 21, 2016 7:28 pm My building has a 24/7 front desk. They just mark packages as "Business Closed" and don't deliver lol. 8:00 AM on a Saturday.... yesterday was the kicker. Went to the Post Office and asked if I could just pick up my package. They demanded to see my tracking info, and when shown, said that means it is on the truck and will be delivered today. I asked if they could just do me a favor and check the back, and she refused. so, after I finished working at 6 and no package, I hung around the lobby until 6:30pm seeing if postman would stumble in drunk or something. No Show. Get on the train - check status - 6:15pm "Could not deliver, Business Closed". Cheeky cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boops_popmarket Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Call USPS general customer support and open a claim with the person on the phone and describe your experience with trying to pick up the package. The person on the phone won't work for the post office branch you're having issues with so they won't be defensive and stonewall you. I'll bet good money that you will either get a phone call from the post office manager assuring you they'll deliver your package ASAP or you'll find your package miraculously delivered at the front desk within 2-3 days.

Just the lowest of the low garbage.Last time I had an issue with this Post Office they did this for 2 weeks and I went there every day trying to get my package. Then miraculously they marked it as delivered one morning at like 4am and it showed back up at the senders house 5 months later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
