If they sent it Registered or Express Mail, you had a chance of getting it back because that mail is kept separate but if it went regular air mail, you were out of luck. The supervisor at JFK told me regular air mail went on the big machine and once it went into the bag, that was it.
Maybe I should feel sorry for these people, but I keep thinking that it all comes back to greed. Give these people a chance to get something for nothing (or almost nothing) and they can't wait.
