Title: rcvd a delivery notice/reminder in the mailbox a day ago
Post by: gourami456789 on December 17, 2011, 07:09 pm
so i got one of those green cards in my mailbox yesterday informing me that i have a package waiting for me at the post office. however, there is 39 cents due. which i find strange. doesn't the post office kick back to the sender if their packages/letters doesn't have the right amount of postage on the item? however, it gives me the option to check the box redeliver and leave item at my address box. without having to sign the green card.
so i tried that option and i left 40 cents in my mailbox for the mailman today. that didn't work. my mail was delivered but the card and 40 cents was still sitting there. i have the option of going online and filing out a form to request a redeliver attempt. however, there is a consent box that i'm allowing the post office to share with law enforcement information if so requested by LE. and of course the last option is to go to the post office on monday. or i guess the really last option is to just say fuck it and leave well enough alone.
there is a name of the sender on the card. i have sent two messages to the seller and i haven't received a response back. any advice here? thanks.

i read the directions on the green card a fifth time and sober time and i think the mailman left the card was that i didn't sign it. i have to authorize the redelivery attempt. i think i'll sign it and leave 40 cents in my box on monday.

or possibly you have to pay in person?

In all honesty I think you should just go to the post office and pay up, and walk out with your package. Doesn't seem like anything to be worried about to me.

well since i've posted this i've been in contact with the seller and he already issued me a refund. he was really great and apologized for the hassle. he said the same thing, to have a friend and go in and get it or just suck up and do it. i'm thinking it over.

so i went into the post office this morning right when it opened at 9am. after dealing with those morons for a bit. i got my package, paid the amount due and was on my way to work.
