I sold a Freehub Body to someone on the Forum and the package was delivered with a hole in it... of course no Freehub Body in it.
I filed with Claims and went through the proper procedures and they asked me to send them proof of purchase. I went to a local shop and they printed me an estimate and USPS denied it because the date was after the ship date. I called and talked with someone after waiting an hour on the phone and said that I actually sold it for more than the $50 given insurance that I was just looking to get the $50 and she still denied it. Completely worthless even if you do insure it you are at their mercy as to if that want to actually send you a refund. |

Tbf they wanted a receipt to prove you had the item. You offered them an evaluation of the same? Or am i missing something. Paypal slip usually works in these situations ime. |

Personally, I am selective about where I spend my cash and for a myriad of reasons it isn't Amazon or cut rate retailers. As a specialty retailer myself, I appreciate good service delivered by knowlegable people that are well compensated for their passion and product knowledge about a specific niche of products.
The list of places I refuse to spend money is long and dynamic, but I have my reasons |

Fixed it for you
I'm definitely pissed off at the USPS this season: Sent my niece and nephew their holiday gifts via Priority Mail on 12/23. Two 100% identical envelopes going to the same address, sent from the same location at exactly the same time; they went into the local post office's outgoing Priority Mail slot side-by-side. One of them arrived on 12/26. The other still hasn't arrived, and the USPS hasn't been able to locate it since it fell off their radar on 12/25. |

Yes, this is what I meant.
It's definitely not OK to lie about it. I'm not excusing what may have been done, just trying to understand why the carrier may have done it. I have been in jobs myself where it was simply impossible to do what was asked with the tools/time/money available. But that doesn't stop management from telling you to do it anyway or pay the price.
Despite what you may hear about unemployment being very low right now, keep in mind there are a hell of a lot of people out there who ARE working who are just barely holding on in low paying jobs. Here's some info . . . http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2015/...rs-a-year.html -38 percent of all American workers made less than $20,000 last year. -51 percent of all American workers made less than $30,000 last year. -62 percent of all American workers made less than $40,000 last year. -71 percent of all American workers made less than $50,000 last year. That guy who fudged on your delivery info is very likely one of those who are just scraping by. BBD Quote:

I'll go against the grain here....I've had great luck with USPS. I've lived most of my life in small towns and the PO employees have always been polite and very helpful.
And for amazing service, how about this recent experience. On the Friday before Christmas I sent a package to my Mom. It wasn't a present and the estimated delivery date was on Tue the 26th. On Christmas day I decided to check the tracking to see where it was and it had been delivered that morning....it took essentially two days to travel 2000 miles and was delivered on a holiday!

Ordered an item from Amazon on Friday, message from Amazon said it would be delivered on Sunday (yesterday) I said to myself, oh OK, it's one of those hand-off deals the USPS is in on. Yesterday received message that pkg would be delivered. Then about 4PM, I received a message that the pkg was undeliverable because the business was closed. The header is to my business but it is a residential address. The message said they tried to deliver at 2:30 PM. Today I looked at the pkg and it clearly says on the label "Carrier: Leave if no response" It was a total fabrication, I was sitting at my kitchen table with a full view of the walk to my door. There was no attempt to deliver the package and nobody rang the bell. I didn't need the item yesterday or even today. What hacks me off is that the bastards blatantly lie. What a boat load of $hit.

My regular carrier is a nice enough lady, seems to do a good job, etc.....but she gets very pissed when on her week end days off they loan out her regular delivery vehicle to week end contract employees......who leave their food wrappers and empty drink cups in the vehicle she normally uses. She says they are not regular USPS people. I assume the weekend people are delivering packages. What a mess!

the woman that delivers amazon packages on weekends and holidays to our house is much nicer than the regular PO employees. But the service has been really good. I used to be annoyed when the final delivery was supposed to be done by UPS, but then it would say delivered and only later it would come out the UPS driver delivered it to the post office. And come to my house a day late.
amazon recently began stretching out the 2 days to mean that they have two days to ship. Which they then use up doing something else, so no way it's getting to me before 4 days. |
