Im crossposting this from an rc sub because some is even more important to you guys. Annnnddd I've read some absolutely retarded shit about usps on this sub
Example 1. Was expecting an order last month. Was tracking it, finally says out for delivery. Great right? Uh except it was out on delivery in the wrong zip code.. . i am xxx14. Well it left the xxx16 office, which is a city over. Obviously not getting it today. Wrong. Waited till the routes were over and called the po asked if they had my package. Sure enough they did. So instead of waiting another day, drove to that po and picked it up. Most routes are done by 2pm, most po'd open till 5. Once the mailman gets back he scans everything he didnt deliver. Bam. This won't work at a sort facility, but any normal office you can pick up your shit with id. Also safer imo, cuz day they were gonna do a controlled delivery, well if you just show up and grab it they have no time to prepare. Also post office agents or whatever never tell the local employees they are going to do it till the very last minute for securiry reasons. I've seen it done where they up at the po day of delivery and take it from there. Or they will leave a note saying you need to come get it. Well if there was never sig confirmation on the order, just kiss it goodbye or pray they deliver it the next day. In that case never pick something up. All plausible deniably gos out the window. Here is a story http://www.fox9.com/news/24182149-story If his packs weren't sig required, which I'm guessing they weren't, he should of never went to po. Play dumb. They weren't even in his name either, im guessing that's why they wanted him to come claim them.
Example 2. pack says delivered, it's not in your mailbox. This just happened to me today actually. Very large order too. Was obv freaked. 25g's + 5gs at like 400$+. substance i won't name, but this isn't something you want laying around. Time is of the essence on these. They mostly likely delivered it to te wrong addy. Well lots of people open mail that isnt theres, and in most cases with our type or packs they are either gonna keep it, throw it away, or call LE. This is something you don't wait to fix itself. Need to be extremly proactive in this situation. . Well, you can call your local po, say yo where my shit, and they actually have realtime gps tracking on all there vans. They also have radiio comms to them. Well he finds the stupid delivery lady dropped it off at 10x7 instead of 11x7. Well... Once i had the adress want about to wait for her to finally go back anf try to get it. Probably wouldnt redliver till morning anyway. Also don't want some nosy fuck opening a pack like that. So i flew over there, went up to front door and very nicely said my package was delivered here by mistake. Key here it to let them know you already know. Nice guy he handed it right over.
Example 3. You have friends, gf, family over etc. Or it isn't your place and you want your pack asap without anyone seeing it. Again, call po, say you are expecting a priority pack with a check in it and are trying to go out of town asap. Again if you're nice, he will locate driver, you can go find him on the street, show him id, get all your mail 2-3 hours early.
Example 4. Kinda same as last, but if you are SUPER inpatient, you can show up at the po right after sorting before the vans leave. Ask who has your route, chances are you will recognize them. Walk up and say i need my mail now, expecting a really important document. Bam they will hand it over as long as you have id. Its sweet getting a pack at 730am vs noon.
Example 5. Your are expecting a pack that requires sig confirm but you know you won't be there. Well you don't need there slip. Plain piece of paper, right name, addy , tracking number, say that you request it to be left and sign it. They then just scan that sig and will leave your pack. Also gives you some plausible deniability. If it was controlled delivery they wanna actually see you sign it. So If you ever try this method and they DONT leave it. Be very very wary. These are all things I've had to do, some more than once. Probably forgetting a few too. If you have any questions let me know. Oh btw express shit comes on a dif truck. Usually stair from sorting center and the guys route changes day to day and has more area to cover. So tracking them down can be a bitch. Better off just waiting for it. Also there express guys are the best of the best. Like 0.3% error rate vs 5-7% for the normal Schleps. I know allot of this cuz i have a close friend that's works
