So yesterday the postman delivered a package and as i am signing for it he mentions that I have been getting a lot of packages lately. Also, my wife had to pick up a package from the post office because we were not home at the time of delivery and the lady at the counter said she could not find one of the 2 packages. She then told my wife that if she wants it she needs to tell the supervisor to look for it. She also asked my wife what she was getting from India. My wife didn't answer.  It was the 6th package in about a month because I just wanted to order once and get it over with but I guess ordering in bulk is not a good idea. Am I being paranoid or should I worry?

 
honestly I would be soo nervous, but I feel if you where going to be in trouble you would have known it..

they at the delivery service are nosie by nature..if they ask just giggle and smile....and change subject like, wow...can you believe how hot it is today...phew..when will this heat wave be over...and then smile...not nervous just  nice kind smile

If you live in a small town where people are just nosy, like where I live, I would not worry about it. However, you may want to consider setting up a p.o box in another town. And if you're going to order in bulk actually order in bulk. As in one big big order. Especially since it appears as though you have established that this is a legit vendor. Good luck to you

 
In my opinion and as someone who has worked for the post office you have nothing to worry about.  I would say something like.. yes, I do spend a lot of time on ebay and smile!!  I had a package that was not delivered and Amazon showed it was mailed and when I went to the post office to inquire about it I was also told that the supervisor would have to look for it.  Normal procedure.  And of course what you are ordering from India?  Spices!!!

Suzie I will be coming to you with a question via pm. Sent a friend mail and didn't go well. Phone dying. Pm u later? Ty!

 
I would tell them that Ive been doing a lot of bidding on Ebay for Ethiopian Opals.  I used to win opals from India all the time.

 I know I would get antsy if the post office couldn't

find my mail that had my newest opal purchase!   I live in a small super nosy town, the post office

is the worst so I know how you feel.  Ive been paranoid about receiving before.  If I ask myself if I am receiving too often then I probably

need to slow down or find another way.  Good Luck

 
All great advice. And mostly reassuring. Thank you all. I was thinking that maybe the postman was just getting a little bit tired of going up my stairs. Haha and the lady at the post office well, just plain nosy. This is the last time I use this address. I do have a p.o box that I used last year but I thought I would mix it up. The staff at my p.o. Box location are cool compared to this other post office my package goes to when I'm not home to receive it. Thanks for the support!

 
Hey guys, just want to update you guys on my packages. I have been receiving them without any problem. Except for the fact that the post man seems to express a little bit of irritation, everything is ok. When he had me sign yesterday he said "you have more of these packages." This is the last time I use this address for sure! 

 
He really said that?

"more of these packages" for you or in general?

 
Sounds unprofessional to me. It would freak me out though and have me signing up for a PO box, no doubt.

I'd have really been tempted to say something snarky like "yes, am I putting you out having to deliver them?".

Sorry that your postman is an ass.

For me. Yeah that's why I am never using this address again. 
You should use your address: That mail man is a Melba Toast...nothing else!!

USPS has a nice office for things like that (Compliance Dept.) in Manhattan...google it :-)
I did use my address but I live in an apartment and I usually use p.o box but I just wanted to mix it up. I will google that for sure, thanks.

This is exactly why I tip my mailman for Xmas and whatnot! Oh god, that would be nerve wracking! It's already the worst to go in and pickup a missed package.

On a tangent - I've seen my fair share of errors of all sorts from them, but I just got introduced to a new one.

Package ships out from IN.

Origin..

Procsess Eyesee...

Then bam

USPS Trackin is unavailable 4 this product 4 IN.

/default_huh.pngWut?

The previous information for my mailspotting had disappeared and replaced with just their wonderful phrase. Thankfully, I still have my texts that were sent to me so I can read those before bed to feel good. It's just like posts from way back that had similar problems, I guess it will just peek out when it isn't scared. I was half cracking up, wanting to yell at it "You are going the wrong way!!!"

The thing just arrived here and I guess I scared it off! Wish there were others that were going through this, but oh well, they never cease to amaze me.
Do you really tip the mailman? Wow, I never thought of that. Do you mind me asking how much. That sounds like a good idea.

@Meltheangel Ya! I like to go out if I see him coming down the street and just shoot the shit with him, cool guy, but is retiring next year :(.

I'm not rich for sure haha, but if it's Christmas or maybe something random like postman appreciation day I like to give him 20 bucks or maybe something corny like a best mailman mug!

I try and do the same, a bit for the garbagemen, but they don't do that great of a job : /.

But yeah, it has helped. Since we just talk, I'll ask him if I have a question about a package or vent about the sorting being slow. He will typically go out of his way and check - in fact he found one package just stuck in his truck once, right near the passenger side. I knew that it was mine right away :).

Just being appreciative of all the crap they have to do goes a long way.
well that sounds cool. I used to talk to the mailman that used to ho to my house growing up. I have only been living here for about 2 years so I guess I need to warm up to him. /default_smile.png

thanks again for the tip.

 
Okay, so I just checked tracking number on the last of my four packages I've been waiting for and it says "USPS Tracking is unavailable for this product for India" 

what the hell does that mean? I know for a fact one of them made it to my city. The same post office where the lady was giving me a hard time and asking me what I was receiving from India.

very concerned now. /default_sad.png

has anyone had this message on tracking?

 
blackfish said:
Yup, had all my previous info on it deleted, and only get that phrase for days now. Apparently it happened last year if you search the board.

I'm not too worried. Seems like they are doing maintenance or something. I've never seen it before this.

I would love to hear from someone who got their package. From what I have read, it most likely will just appear in your box... Though I would love confirmation from anyone.

I'll let you know if I get any change. My other one has just been 2 origins. Both been unchanged status for a week : /
thank you blackfish. I hope you are right on this. I will try to pm tonight if not tomorrow for sure because I'm getting up early tomorrow. Thanks again

 
Hi and a good evening to all,

I receive packages quite a bit as I am doing my Christmas shopping early and I have NEVER had one c/o from any person at the Post office, or Fed-x, ect..

Now, I'm wondering....hummmmmmm....should I be a tiny bit concerned if I receive bulk at first?

alley

 
If you are going to set a precedent, might as well do it right. Bulk can only be so much weight as far as this stuff is concerned. I think my 2k packs weigh 1.2 lb and often I estimate its accuracy by reading the carrier weight. 

Might as well mention now to be careful about mentioning the shippers names. Someone else will otherwise. Its a lot to remember and I often have to edit my comments. /default_wink.png Good luck.

  1. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  9. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  10. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  11. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  12. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  13. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  14. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  15. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  16. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  17. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  18. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  19. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  20. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
