    Another eBay shipping horror story

    I actually got a Carded mego shipped in a flattened box. The irony is it was shipped priority but the box would have been fine if folded the right way. The bubble on the top and bottom was crushed but to the seller's credit they did make it right once I wrote to them. But c'mon did they think it would be shipped safely this way.

    16.4 million Americans (7% of the population) think chocolate milk comes from brown cows. People are stupid.

      What was it and what did you pay for it? Did you expect it hand delivered?

            I expect when my post office puts my $80 package on a truck for delivery that it does not get forwarded to Freeport 3 minutes later. I have never even been to Freeport, but my package is visiting there right now.

            I hope it brings back some great pics...

              $13.60 in a medium flat rate box? It would have been better if they bubble wrapped it nice and tight and put it in a regular
              correct sized brown cardboard box, all taped up nicely, it might have been cheaper and safer. I'm guessing they didn't offer insurance on it in case of damage.

                Next time I mail something out I will have to ask about who gets paid out for insurance. I have only had the issue 3 times all involving Carded megos. Makes me think twice before buying.
