So I won something about 10 days ago, I haven't even contacted the seller yet, I usually wait 2 weeks. Here is the email I got last night from seller mhsthings...
"Hi, I'm afraid I have some disappointing news. Your package came BACK to me in the mail because the postage sticker has been RIPPED OFF of the package! Evidently, the good ol' post office tried to put the envelope through one of its automated sorting machines, which they are NOT supposed to do, because it's a parcel! HOWEVER, none of the contents in the package were damaged at all. I am RE-mailing a different package out to you in Tuesday morning's mail. Please, please, if you get time, let me know when you receive the package so that I will know it got to you OK this time. I figured you had already received it until I saw it in my mailbox. I sincerely apologize for this delay, but I am doing everything I can to get your package to you. I really appreciate your patience!!
Thank you,
Mike C******

Now that wouldn't have been a problem, even if it was an excuse it has only been 10 days, but when I received the email I recognized the name. I went back through some old emails and found this...
Bought another card back in March, about 2 weeks after I paid for the card I got this response from sportscardsusa...
"Hi, I'm afraid I have some disappointing news about your package. I apologize for not e-mailing you sooner, but I've been in Florida for the past 9 days and haven't had access to the internet. When I returned home last night, I noticed that your package had been returned to me because, somehow, the postage sticker had been RIPPED OFF of the package! It looks to me as if the post office tried to put the bubble envelope through one of its automated sorting machines, which has actually happened to me before. HOWEVER, the card was not harmed. I can either give you a full refund, or I can mail it back out to you in Monday morning's mail. It's completely up to you. Just let me know what you would like and I will make it happen. Again, my apologies for this screw-up, but I will do whatever it takes to make it up to you.
Thank you again for your patience,

I laughed at first but I will definitely be following up with him to call him out on it...
How many others have bought from either of these 2 names and received this story?
