Question about PO boxes

pujolsjunkie · Aug 11, 2009

Just wondering about a situation - many of you know about my Parker refractor lot that I sold. Well, I had packaged them in two small boxes (meant to store cards - had them saved from one of Andrew's team breaks) and a large bubble mailer for the ones that couldn't fit and the graded ones. I took these 3 parcels to the post office, where I was convinced by the lady there to put them all in one box, which was fine by me. I put them in one of their flat rate boxes and sent the package on its way. The buyer's address is a PO Box - he is now claiming that he received only one box and a bubble mailer - no flat rate box...do postal workers remove contents if a box is too big or something? What other explanation could there be for this?

Number one rule when selling - NEVER ship to a PO Box. Ever.

They man have, but I doubt it. If it does not fit in there PO Box they will hold on the table
right in the same area and put a not in the box stating they have an oversize parcel.

I hope he is not scamming you. But I can't speak for their local PO. but I do know mine
will never open the box under any circumstance what so ever.

DC on the priority box? Because if you did, and it shows delivered, he could be lying.

I did get DC, but it isn't showing as delivered yet.
