This is why I hardly every mail in a seperate small flat rate usps box (81 Viewers)

[doublebooyah85]

I almost always package my single racks + up to 1 additional barrel into a small flat rate priority box INSIDE a priority flat bubble mailer.

Very rarely will I send chips in a stand alone small flat rate priority box. Only when I’m out of bubble wrap mailers or when it’s not too important of a rack. And even so I tape it up heavily.

Ugh…this one was valuable at around $1000….

@Jers28 and I had this gone missing for over a month

That blows. On one hand, I suppose it’s closure. But, that still really sucks. I’ll get the details from you privately. Can’t wait to hear the official USPS story. It looks like they ran it over. Yeesh.

This is my second package I’ve ever sent I had issues.

First one was luckily insured.

Damn that sucks that chips got snapped during shipping.

FWIW you can order the padded bubble mailers from USPS.com for delivery or you can just grab them from the PO. I always reorder when I hit 20 left just incase.


Sorry this happened though. I’m sure it’s better you don’t know how it happened because of how stupid and/ or negligent the reason would be.

I actually did not know this was an option, thanks for the tip! Usually would try to grab them in person

Sorry for the loss… but this is a joke, right?

I just almost did something really stupid and lost many thousands of dollars.

I used a refunded PirateShip label accidentally (I made a new label but printed the old one by mistake).

USPS scanned the package and accepted it but tracking wasn’t showing. I went to my local USPS and they said it would likely make it but that the receiver would have to pay.

Receiver just got the chips and wasn’t required to pay anything.

Scariest hack ever??

 

[dizzyChipper]

up to two stacked SFRB can fit in an FRE giving double capacity and water protection at basically same price.

For max protection.
Chips
In cut up FRE.
In SFRB.
In FRE.
In priority small box (non flat rate) - label on this just in case too.
In FRE

I’ve had issues. I always use insurance.
After two decent sized claims I’m “up” on what should be a losing bet.

This happened to me to a few months ago, but thankfully with a much smaller transaction. Whats even stranger is that i printed my label at the post office using a QR code.

Luckily the person who got them was really chill and reshipped them to the correct address.
