Default I'm so disappointed, sad, mad and more

If you all could se me now, you probably se a jackass and not a person(me) and why so, you all may think

It all started a couple a month ago, when a person in an another section of subsim asked if it stil was possible to buy Subcommand. I offered him my copy of Subcommand(the original offcourse) This person then send me, the address I should send the parcel to.
I toke a copy of the address, printed it out, went to our local postoffice, from where I send and it was send as a registret letter. Two weeks later I send this person a mail and asked if the parcel had arrived. The person wrote back, no parcel had arrived. This was on June 11th.

I then wrote to the swedish post and complained about their service. Not even registred letter is safe from thief and so on.

Yesterday(friday,21th) I recieved a note that a package was laying at my local postoffice.

guess what it was? You're right, it was the parcel. Return to sender, Unclaimed by the reciever.

It had arrived at this persons postoffice 5th of June.

So 25$ bye bye.

Just take it as a lesson learned. The person might of had good intentions but not the money to back it up. When you are selling to an unknown, don't send until you recieve the money first. I've never been disappointed doing it that way.

No! I was not demanding money for the game. It was a kind of a gift. If this person want to give something for it, the person could give it to neal.

Sometimes post offices do a bad job of notifying people that they have a package waiting. So it may not entirely be the fault of the person in question.

Just a thought.

Yeah that happened to me once. I ordered something from a mail order catalog and it never arrived. After a couple weeks i called them back and they told me i had refused to sign for it, but I never saw a delivery guy or recieved any notice there was a package waiting for me.
