I'm on a roll . . .
I just got my first bad feedback at Amazon . . . because a book listed as a 6th edition, published in 1995 . . . is ten years old.

Re: I'm on a roll . . .
Sorry for laughing, but the best thing to do when you encounter a buyer like that is to laugh and be very thankful that you weren't dropped on your head as a child like that buyer obviously was... :

Re: I'm on a roll . . .
I did have withdrawal. It wasn't pretty.
The good news: I came back to no new negs at eBay or Amazon and a couple of sales including a BIG web store sale. The bad news: Also came back to a nice email about a book that an Amazon buyer hadn't received which was shipped expedited on 12/16. I remember the book. I remember shipping it in a flat rate envelope. Unfortunately, I have no record of printing postage for it. All I can think is that I dropped it in the big blue box without a label. Yeah, me. |

The good news is good.

Re: I'm on a roll . . .
Wading through my email, I also found a really nice best offer for 20 widgets. It's for about 85% of my list price and, in a lot of 20, a price I am MORE than happy to part with them for.
It unfortunately expired while I was out of town, but I wrote and asked if he was still interested. The other, I still just feel awful about. :-( |

Re: I'm on a roll . . .
What sucks about this is that there is no return address on it. Nothing. I am going to go by both post offices I use tomorrow and see if they have a big fat unlabeled flat rate envelope package floating around. Unless they opened it, they wouldn't even know which moron to return it to!

Re: I'm on a roll . . .
So, my local post office says that items without labels are sent to the dead letter office in Atlanta. They are opened there and returned to sender if there is a packing slip, etc. enclosed. (There is.) They said give it a few weeks. Of course, they can't confirm this is what happened to my package . . . .
