Lost cigars/U.S. Postal Service
- Thread starter zama80
- Start date
Within the past year or so, I have noticed that USPS routinely updates status of parcels to "delivered" one, two, and sometimes 3 days before they actually deliver. It probably has something to do with their staffing cutbacks and money issues. I use UPS now whenever possible. I"m glad you got your stash zama 
Lucky guy, if I knew who the person was that put them back I'd def find a way to say thanks, mb just put up a notice in your mail room saying thanks to whomever returned the package that was delivered wrong, just a little thank you would go a long way I bet.
Glad you found them, best way to avoid it happening again is try to get to know your carrier that way they can put a face to the name. A little known fact is the Postal Service does offer the option of holding your parcel at the Post office for pick up that way you avoid mis-deliveries.
Yest they did. Forgot to update that part. My initial call was on a Saturday, and they called me back the next Tuesday evening. The guy was very apologetic when I told him what happened and he seemed pretty pissed that it happened at all, and said he would speak to our route guy to make sure it doesn't happen again. I asked him what would have happened had it really been lost and said I would have to contact the vendor and they would have had to make initiate the claim. Luckily it worked out.

Just Another Ashhole
Just one of the reasons I use reputable Cigar Sources in case my order doesn't make it to my doorstep...I had a $300 order of cigars that were supposed to have been delivered last week but somehow got "lost" as UPS said they dropped it off at my door at 10:27 am which is a lie because they only make one delivery per day and the deliver they made was for another order from Famous Smokes at 6 pm. I'm thinkin my UPS driver ( probably a substitute as my usual driver knows me ) and got himself a nice batch of cigars but CI is putting in a claim and will resend the entire order to me in a week. Gotta love a good place that does great CS.
