shaggy Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 If it doesnt get there and you haven't sent it recorded. You're screwed (N) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Was it recorded delivery or special delivery? If you just used a stamp and a prayer then you have been very silly. LEON Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 I've sent quite large amounts of money in envelopes, 10+ times, first class, and it's all arrived in time. Have done it abroads aswell, and no problems. Either you're very unlucky, or dealing with a fishy seller. I've never had a letter lost in transport here, but Sweden might be a little bit different.

Ben Geary Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 (edited) was it in one off them thin envelopes or did you put it in a jiffy bag i always have to put in a jiffy bag. if you have put it in one off them thin envelopes the postman see the money in the shadow and open it and nick it. it's happened to my friend's but it's never happened to me. in the future put it in a jiffy bag, a lot safer, or the seller is messing you around. ben (N) Edited May 12, 2005 by Gears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted May 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Yeah but he just said he hide it e.g wrapping it in paper folded into thirds etc. It happened to me with Phil white once lol We were shitting it for 2 weeks, £110 i think gone for 2 and a half weeks , scary stuff (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Did you put a return address on it? I sent Jimbo £70 and it didn't arrive, then turned up here again a few weeks later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 I once sold a pair of wheels on ebay, and they DID get lost in the post. I'm not sure if i packed them wrong, the printed address wasn't clear enough or what. But i got a form from the post office like number 41 or some thing. Filled that in, 2 months later they turned up. Luckily the person buying them was very understanding and just didn't leave feedback (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
