Yeah, by the time I'd have gotten to it was about the time it should have been delivered. The information I needed to connect the tracking number on the post office receipt to your email address is all at the shop, and I didn't get to the shop until Monday, and it should have arrived Monday or Tuesday.
Well I am out 30 compac sticks. It sucks because if I had that tracking number I would have made sure to be around to receive the package as I was pretty excited about it. Either the package was stolen or USPS delivered it to the wrong site. I talked with USPS and they basically said because there was no insurance or signature required there is nothing they can do. Not going to lie I am pretty upset about this.
Tell them you want to make an official complaint that it was stolen .
It is a matter of principal and that reporting the theft to them and the police whatever police handle the report is what you would like to do.
Go in person be nice be nicer be nicest.
They sticks cost you more then 500 usd. So they have to do the paper work if you insist.
Why bother you would be stunned that being really calm relaxed and super cool to them about making the report often the item turns up.
Insist that you want to know which postman worked that day and what he recalls about the shipment.
When in doubt ask for a complete set of rules and forms to report the theft.
I did make an official complaint with the USPS. I know the lady that delivers packages for USPS to my apartment very well. I order A LOT of packages. She double checked and she was working and delivered the package that day. She even has the GPS tracking on her scanner that shows that she physically was at my door step to deliver the package.
So it is clear that it was stolen. My apartment complex was notified and I filed a report.
Beyond calling the police, which would just result in a police report, there isn't much else I can do.
I am going to be setting up a security camera for my front door, as I get a lot of expensive packages and don't really want to deal with another stolen package.
Honestly it is not sidehack's fault in anyway, and I don't want to come off as implying that. He obviously did nothing wrong here. Even USPS delivered the package, so I can't really fault them. Just some asshole had to come and steal it.
Pretty sad as I had sold my S7 and other gear and was just planning to do small-time mining as my new job takes up most of my free time. Looks like I'll be getting out altogether now.
