Not yet. Some of us are still waiting for their items.


i think those are all from aaron, who has commented on his situation elsewhere. If you want reimbursed, let me know and I'll tell him not to ship your stuff.

I'm patient and willing to wait. I was just responding to FB's question.

Sending a PM to Amish concerning his address. His game lot has been sent back twice.

When I'm home from work I will send Amish pictures of:

The games.

The games going in a box.

The games going on a trip to the Post Office.

Me filling out your address.

Your address and sealed package.

Me and a smiling postal worker with hopes that your package arrives at the correct destination.

Why was it sent back? Invalid address?

It was either labeled "invalid" or "undeliverable" address.

Clearly I've angered a postal worker somehow.

So what kind of place do you live in? A room in a house? An apt building? Have you had mail not delivered before?

I remember someone doing snow shoveling for my church. We mailed him a check for doing work one month and he never got it. A few weeks later, it was returned undeliverable. Apparently he has had trouble getting mail and for that particular week, there was a substitute carrier.

You should definitely go to your local post office and complain about the misdelivery.

It could be a problem with Address Standardization as well. Go to usps.com and enter your address to create a label and it should standardize it for you. Or, you could try entering it into mapquest.com and see what it says your address is. It will usually even tell you what the +4 ZIP is.

If this doesn't get to Amish by the end of next week, I'm driving to Charleston.

Amish, I have additional pictures with your address clearly written on the label if you'd like me to send them to you.

I am completely flabbergasted with this entire situation. In my entire life maybe one or two things didn't mail properly. I had the postal worker double check the address and everything short of "insurance" on the package.


Amish, man I apologize again. I have no answers other than the package has been returned twice. And although you said to just keep the games, you're going to get what you purchased.

Cool pic, Luke.

Did you have to pay for postage each time? I hope not. Usually the post office will redeliver it on the original postage if the address has a mistake or wasn't delivered correctly.
