The seller did give me a complete refund, but I was still pretty sore as they were out of print and hard to find miniatures that I'd gotten a smoking good deal on. I was extra sore because they'd charged $4 or 5 for shipping and then put them in a paper envelope and mailed them for $1.20. Or something like that - if they'd actually USED the money they charged for shipping to spring for a padded envelope it probably wouldn't have happened. (muttergrumblegrrrrrr....)<br /><br />I know it happened another time with USPS, and then again with Canada post - who have a similar sort of bag - but I can't remember either of those...? I must have gotten refunds or had replacements send (otherwise I'd probably still remember - apparently I'm a terrible grudge holder... I'd really like to be able to just let things go, but some little part of my brain constantly goes "HEY, THAT REMINDS ME OF THIS TIME...?!")timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-73273756283737998812016-12-18T08:53:23.840-08:002016-12-18T08:53:23.840-08:00Tim, when your package arrived in the body bag wer...Tim, when your package arrived in the body bag were you able to seek any restitution?

Ships were not damaged and no traces of halitosis were ever found. <br /><br />Last week received a package enclosing a board game. The sender had thoughtfully and thoroughly labeled the outside "Do not Crush". Apparently USPS misinterpreted this to mean "CRUSH without mercy". After repeatedly serving as a wheel chock for one of their tractor-trailers, it was pored onto the front porch. They must care because almost beyond belief, the contents was in tact and undamaged. <br /><br />Package carriers move in mysterious ways. <br /><br /><br /> William Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03047911499131518952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-71413245318737808422016-12-16T19:21:48.575-08:002016-12-16T19:21:48.575-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-91556648535014875802016-12-16T19:17:40.994-08:002016-12-16T19:17:40.994-08:00Yeah, this package was a mess but both of our orde...Yeah, this package was a mess but both of our ordered items came through the debacle unscathed.
