Received this about 10 minutes ago.  Now the last package they delivered from RSC I watched the cover driver throw onto our front stoop from a good 10 feet away. This was delivered by my regular driver who had marked it as damaged before he left the facility this morning because he said it came off the truck that way. Good thing I'm a loose collector |

Oh it could have bit me in the @$$ big time. Because I was doing something underhanded. lol I had some extra funds in PP so Thursday night after my wife went to bed I ordered a second RR Heritage Orton, because I figured as soon as I got home from dropping her and my daughter off at the airport Saturday. (They are at disney with my daughter's best friend) I was going to open the RR Heritage Orton I knew was arriving on Friday. And then I was going to replace it with this one. But she saw the package on Friday and knew how the cards looked so if she didn't surprise me and give me the first one Friday night. I would have been busted when she saw this card. because the back of the card was also kicked in. As far as I can tell the figure is fine though. Everything seems to be working |

this is why I buy figures in stores, and not let high school dropouts try their "used to be in football throw" with my package.

This package wasn't the one that was launched to my doorstep. That was the one on Friday with my 2-Packs Series 8 and first Royal Rumble Orton. This package my regular mailman knocked on the door and let me know about it. |

yeah good thing ur a loose collector. i am too. i wouldnt be mad about the hole in the box cuz if u look in the hole u can see nothing is damaged plus i throw the box out anyway. however i would be mad if i saw the carrier throw the package cuz a. the stuff inside the box could be damaged and b. i have a glass screen door. the box could have hit the screen door and broken it.

I would have been busted when she saw this card. lol You know I haven't really felt like it was xmas time this year yet. Until,that is,I read this post. Lol. I have from time to time expressed this very same ....umm....enthusiasm shall we say ...for my presents. To such a level where my @ss may well have been bitten should parents,friends ,and now my fiancee find out my deviousness. Thank you PJ for reminding me what the christmas feeling is at 32 years old. Now onto your topic. I have been experiencing this same treatment from my postwoman. As a matter of fact I ordered a RR 05 dvd and when it came saturday,the envelope was torn open and the dvd was sticking out of the mailer in plain view for anyone to see. It has gotten so bad with Amazon,RSC,andTRU.com packages lately,that I now walk down to meet her before she has the chance to throw my boxes carelessly around. Unfortunately I didn't know that dvd was arriving that day. So I got a soggy water warped RR 05 case. (It was raining). It will most certainly get worse now that the holiday shipping season has officially begun. |

I wasn't going to order it, but I was still a little pissed off about this trip. When it was first planned in the summer we were going to drive down on Wednesday night missing the holiday with my family. I like to drive so I can stop at stores along the way and maybe see/visit other things on the way. Now everyone was fine with that until Sept then my wife and daughter decided they wanted to do Thanksgiving with my sister. OK I said we could leave right after her house. But then my wife said it was cheaper to fly. So I said fine I'll stay home and save more money for the holiday. And before I could finish that statement she was booking the flights.  This coming from the woman who swore to me they'd never go on vacation again without me. The last 2 years they went to Disney World without me because my in-Laws invited themselves and I refuse to go on vacation with them. But the final straw was when she said I had to take them to and from the airport. And then I find out she chose Newark over Stewert's in Newburgh which is much easier to get in and out of and it's closer. So that's when I decided I was ordering the other Orton. lol My regular mailman (Kevin) is great and so is the one woman that covers for him from time to time, but Kevin is off on Fridays and we get this other guy and he is a nightmare. I've had packages thrown to our doorstep, delivered to the wrong houses. Hell we seem to get an old lady's SS check from down the street every time he has it on his truck. (We live on NorthPark Drive and she lives on Northpark Ct.) {b]This was Friday's delivery...The package that was thrown to my doorstep -[/b] Even though they are still MOC everything looks to be OK. Basic 2-Packs Series 8 Cena & Orton -     Basic 2-Packs Series 8 DiBiase & Rhodes -    Royal Rumble Heritage Randy Orton -     The 2-Packs are for Christmas. And here's my Mattel Randy Ortons minus the Series 8 2-Pack - WM Exclusive Belt Set, WM Heritage, Basic Series 3, FF Big Talkin' Orton, Royal Rumble Heritage, Elite Series 2, KMart Exclusive Steel Cage Ring, FF Hook Throwin', FF Fist Poundin'  |

I'm so lucky I haven't had bad package stories. The worse that ever happened with one of my orders was I ordered the Outsiders Two-Pack Exclusive for Christmas the year it came out, and they sent me a DA Jeff Hardy. Just sent it back and got my correct order. I'm lucky enough to have a mailwoman who actually walks her packages to the door. And she makes sure to put the package in the least dirty spot on my porch so they don't get all screwed up from the dirt and spam.

The mailman I have now is decent. He'll put the package in my door as most do. We used to have a mail-women who chain smoked and when she delivered packages they would reek inside and out of smoke and smelled like an ashtray. Even regular mail would stink but not as bad. I even complained about it and nothing would ever be done. I would see her driving and smoking in the mail truck, then park and smoke for a few minutes as well.

I hate when this crap happens. USPS has usually been good to me, but UPS once walked my RSC order down my neighbors gangway and launched it over the fence onto my back porch. It looked like stuff had fallen all over the box too. EVERY figure inside the box (carding wise) was damaged. Bent in, wrinkled, smashed, etc.
I usually get packages delivered by the same guy over and over. He's a bit rude (he always seems angry that I'm home in the morning for these packages and not at work or something), but never gave me a damaged box. But around the time this happened, I noticed some younger guy had taken over his route briefly.
The first time he delivered a box, I actually caught him handling it carelessly as I came to answer the door. He had first fumbled it in his hands and accidentally sprung it forward, letting it crash against my porch wall. Then he braced it on his knee against the wall while pulling out the little electronic pen for me to sign. Problem is, his fat ass was putting too much pressure against it and dented the box a bit. Luckily it was an order for Round 5 MMA figures, which come in sturdy solid plastic packaging, so nothing was damaged. But I'm assuming he was the same tool who launched the RSC order just weeks later.

At least your mail man actually delivers the packages. My mail lady is so lazy that if she has a package she won't bring it to the door she'll sit in her truck and beep the horn hoping we'll hear her and if we don't come outside within like 10 seconds she drives away. And its dumb cus most of the time the packages can easily fit in my mailbox lol. But sucks that your package was all ripped up, I'd be mad as ever if that happened.

The mailman here won't even bother to ring the buzzer to my apartment so i can come down and get my package, they just put the slip saying I missed them in my mailbox and then I have to go to the post office to get it. Every time it happens.

i just saw everyone talking about their various postmen and usual ups guys. mine r actually pretty cool. the ups guy that usually brings my stuff used to just leave it on the doorstep and not even ring the bell or anything then i guess after he started coming so often he got nicer. now he usually leaves the package on the doorstep, rings the bell, then waits in his truck until he sees me come out to get it. then he gives me a wave and drives off. usually when its something really big (like the tv i bought last year) he even helps me carry it inside. my mail man is really cool too and we have gotten to know each other over the years. i know hes cool cuz he passed my test. on the corner of my block there is one of those mail lockers where the mail men put the mail bags. about 10 years ago every time the mail man would put a bag in the locker and leave the rope hanging out my cousins and i would tie the mail bag rope to the bottom of the locker with like 5 tight knots. for a while we never had a mail man last more than a month without getting their rout changed (i always assumed it was cuz they got annoyed with the mailbag thing). anyway my current mail man is still around after 10 years and we got him with the mailbag thing at least 15 times. plus if i happen to be driving by him ill pull over and ill let him give me my mail there to save him a trip to my house.

JS I miss my old mailman, the one i have now is terrible, he is also a smoker and every time delivers a package he leaves an awful smell behind, my Dad went crazy at him last week because he butted out a cigarette on our doormat. |
