    I'm not sure why you guys get so mad at the douche bags that try and resell this shit.

    Okay, fair enough if that's what is happening in the US with apartment buildings.... i have never heard of it before unless it's a building with a doorman - must be an American thing or something. But still, it is obviously not what the OP has or else the mailman would have used it, and therefore the post office is obligated to NOT leave it in an insecure place, just like they shouldn't be leaving packages on front porches.

    Not disagreeing with you pjsoul, I was just letting it be known what I've seen. No doubt if his place had that system he/she wouldn't be fucked.

    How do you know that the mugs you are missing are the ones that are on eBay?

    Got my set today in the mail. Quality is ok. Have like a bubble on one and smudge like mark. I get it, they're all different but when someone's packaging them, they have to have noticed. Unreal. Eye sore as soon as I took it out. Oh well, and btw, did anyone else expect them to be so small?

    Yes, I knew they were going to be small. I also realize they are handmade, just like the ceramic mugs Nikko made for some people here. Nothing is perfect when things are handmade, that's part of the charm and individuality of them. Has nobody purchased anything at a crafts fair? I hand make a lot of things, and the time and effort put into it is enormous.

    are you suggesting that the person who stole your stuff is also an Ebay flipper?
  • Need to get Bob Loblaw on the case. Seriously though, sorry to the op. Thieving fucks are out in full force this time of year.

    In my 43 yrs of existence, I don't ever recall getting a slip in an actual street address mailbox to pick up my package at the PO. Package is always in the mailbox or at the doorstep. Whereas I have received plenty of slips in my PO box to go to counter to pick up a package. Obviously the package too big to fit in the PO box itself.
    It is difficult sometimes when you order something... Especially to try to send to PO box... Because some merchants refuse to send to PO box, and UPS will not deliver to my PO box. I have had some packages delivered from Fedex to my PO box, but some not...and had to pick up at the FedEx facility.
    Plus it really depends on where you live for lots of the theft problems. Here in Midwest, not as bad...
    But can you imagine the flack that the PO would get not leaving packages at doorsteps and making everyone go to PO to get them. Lines would be nuts... Not going to ever happen in US.

  • where i live, the postmaster allows us to choose what happens with packages too big for the mailbox. i can ask that the carrier keep the package for me to pick up from the post office, leaving a notice behind for me of that circumstance. is this not commonplace for all postal patrons of the USPS?
