My headers vanished

[jessica2112]

I went to get my headers at the post office today. When I got home, I opened a box of Star Wars toys, with someone in my apartment complexes name on it. He did not get my box, he says, and the post office said since I signed for it they are not liable. I have 655 fkin dollars worth of headers and a y pipe, ceramic chrome floating around town. I AM GOING POSTAL- keep your eye on the news, if you hear of postal employees going down, it was ME.

Seriously, where abouts do you live in Boca (don't post a definate address just give me a rough idea), I'll keep my ears up for any stories among the car peeps in the area, and at FAU. There aren't too many V6 fbodies with work done to them down here, somebody at some point will say something stupid.

Around Military Trail and Palametto Parkway 33433 Zip They are Clear Image headers, chromed, y-pipe made for an automatic. W gaskets and all the bolts and washers. Thanks, the post office just said that even though they gave me the wrong box, it was not insured so it's my loss. It's going to be along time before I can replace them. I think I'll get drunk.

Remember to use UPS next time. We do not leave packages at door steps in apartment complexes for this very reason. ;)

I'm surprised the mailed you a large item like that...

They didn't leave it at my door, the post office gave me the wrong box, it was sent USPS. THey left a card on my door to go get it at the post office, so I did, except it was not my box. My box got picked up by someone else. All they have is a signature of the person who got it. Could be anyone.

I'm gonna have to say it again... I like paintball guns...

someone signed for it..... take the star wars toys back and ask who the hell has your box. Did you get the package insured? Claim against the insurance.

Could the Star Wars toys be worth that of the headers? If so... sell 'em [img]tongue.gif[/img] . Sorry, just trying to make light of the situation...

You could try to decifer the signature if they show it to you...

Unless I misread it, I think you guys are reading it wrong.

She wasn't home, so she got the "Sorry we missed you" card. She went in and picked up her package. Signed for it. It turns out the post office made a mistake, and gave her the wrong box (one with an address that looks like hers.) Now they're saying SOL.

What I would do would go in there, and talk to someone as high up as I could. Obviously, unless your package was also signed for and left, its still floating around in the post office.. There really can't be too many people with the same name in your apt. complex, so hopefully they'll put 2 and 2 together when you take them the wrong box.. Either way, good luck with it...I know this really sucks.

Thanks, the star wars toys are worth $50. It had an invoice in the box. I think the box left the building.

I feel ya, it ain't no joke when you drop hard earned duckets for parts and some F'n Vaider Jaba's your Falcon stuff! I'd get all Chu-Bacha'd up on someone! Shoot,...*^#%@!C3-PO...#%R2-D2%#@..ex-cuse my french, and drop a Death-Star to straight'n this Light-Saber out. Don't take no Master Windoo from no-one until Return of the Jedi! :D

Did you not check the label with your name on it at the post office?

Call the Credit Card Company and tell them to refuse to pay the business til they prove it was delievered to you with your signature. Aren't there tracking numbers on the slips that are different?

[yellowfbod]

I don't understand why you didn't check the lable and I collect star wars toys and there is no way that a box full of plastic toys feel anywere as heavy as a box full of steel pipes, hate to say it but you f-uped the post office is not going to take responsablity for it cause you signed and whats saying that you didn't get what you were supose and trying to screw them (not saying you are but thats what their saying) and its not the businesses fault that the post office screwed up so your pretty much SOL

I think that this is actually good advice, tell them you havent received any package from them and see if they will get involved in the mess, I would think that they would have to have your signiture for the package that they sent you

[yellowfbod]

they do have a sig for the package they sent, she signed a proof of delivery on her package but was given the wrong box. She's pretty SOL, the post office is going to say sorry why didn't you check the label before you left and it would be wrong to screw the business it isn't their fault.
