AlGot a call today from a lady who lives a bit over 2 miles from me. Lady says she received a small package addressed to me, but it was in her mailbox today. Her street address is 115 Dogwood Trail, mine is 115 Walnut Court, not even remotely close. The lady was kind enough to look me up in the phone book and give me a call.
The kicker here is that the piece was sent with Delivery Confirmation. No doubt the mail carrier scanned the piece into his/her little computer thingy telling the great Post Office computer that the piece had in fact been delivered. It was delivered ok, but a long way from where it was supposed to be received. The addressing was perfect, a computer printed label with the eBay logo at the top and paypal logo on the bottom. My name and address could not be more clear.
IMO, signature required (automatic with insurance over $200) is the only way to ship cards. You only have to have one "unpleasant" experience like I just did to ruin your day...I got lucky on this one.
