Canceled Empress Joliet secondary $500... again (1 Viewer)

Need 10 more of these. Offering $9 per chip. Please let me know if you have any. Thank you

USPS has been weird here in my area of Texas as well. Nothing lost yet thank goodness.

Yeah, the PO has been a disaster lately. This will be the first thing I've ever lost. It's been 3 weeks and the last the tracking update shows it hasn't even gotten out of the state yet.

Well, as my luck goes it looks like a good chunk of my Empress $500s are probably lost to the void of the US postal service. I have a claim in but fully expect to get screwed out of my chips and my money. So, once again I need help. Looking to buy between 13-33 of these chips. I can offer $8 a chip. Help if you can, thanks.

That sucks, James. How long has it been?

Package was mailed out of TN about 3 weeks ago but tracking stopped in TN on the 29th of November. I filed a claim a couple days ago. There's still hope, but it's very slim. So, trying to be proactive just in case it's 100% gone forever.

@navels sent me 2 insured packages that didn’t even show up in tracking for close to a month. They finally arrived after he filed an inquiry. They’ll come.

My record is 3 months and they showed up a few days after filing.

Well, I'm hoping by filing for a claim it would get things in motion. Nothing yet but it's only been a couple days.

Well, this has me somewhat hopeful. When you say filed an inqury, is that somehow different than filing a claim, as I did?

Lost package claim. It's good that you have tracking. It was a nail-biter waiting for WW's shipment because they weren't scanned at the origin so insurance wouldn't have paid out. Learned my lesson there.

Ok, yes, did this twice. Thank you

I too have had something not show and after filing a claim they found it somewhere and delivered it. However I did lose a package from Europe that never made it past customs

Was a really cool metal dealer button from a WSOP event

Somewhere, right now, customs agents are playing poker with an awesome dealer button... hopefully going bust

Oh, my current customs story is that they think some vintage chips that came in for me are actually live, and that I’m laundering money. They don’t believe my story that the casino closed down lol.

I think they’re bored. Having to get them all kinds of paperwork.

Wow, never even thought about that being a concern!

i can show you two tracking instances where they are weird everywhere
A week later and they have gone backwards like 100 feet.

I have a similar situation right now. Tracking haven’t updated in 3 weeks. Hope your chips arrive!

 

[buffalojim]

At work and slacking off bump

Crap is stupid slow
Especially DC and Illinois area

those other two still showing nothing after a week and going backwards 100 feet

the one is some irreplaceable stuff too

I’ll take slow over fell in the lake at this point hopefully

I had a smallish plastic shipping bag of clothes for my daughter, that was shipped from family in the UK via Royal Mail, arrive torn open, completely water-logged (I mean completely soaking and dripping water), with tire skid marks on it, and enclosed in a plastic bag from the USPS with a “sorry there was some minor damage” note.

So there’s hope.

I might have 10 of these I can spare. Will check this weekend.

That would be amazing man, I appreciate you!

Wow, that's a true story? Jeez, that's pretty terrible. By minor they actually meant completely friggin' ruined. Awful

 

[gopherblue]

Yes. True story. This past week, in fact. Not only that, but it was misdelivered to another apartment in our building, despite the fact that one could barely make out the name/address on the ink-bled shipping label, USPS still got it to the right building.

Package was about the size of a small flat rate bubble mailer, packed with 8 clothing items for a 4-year-old. Considering the damage to the packaging I’m amazed it made it, and I credit the USPS for getting it here despite their likely culpability in its damage. Amazing part? Not one article of clothes was damaged—came out of the wash fine.
