    Anyone ever had anything robbed in the post?

    I ordered a phone battery from a guy

    couple of days later i recieve an envelope with a thin slice on the back

    the envelope was empty and the battery had been pilfered

    cnuts probaby threw it away as it only fits a certain phone and isnt valuable at all

    annything like this happened anyone else?

    How can you be so sure it has been stolen, maybe the envelope got torn and the battery fell out, or perhaps it never was in the envelope:eek:

    I ordered a lot of stuff over the Net for Christmas. One or two things went missing including an Ipod car cradle worth €65. The replacement one was in a package marked "The IPod Shop" :rolleyes:. Some postal worker probably thought he was getting a free IPod for the Christmas. :D

    Don't start worrying till 4. Even then, just do mild unease till 6.

    Ages ago there was a guy fiddling with the post in Nenagh. He was in the bookies one day, one of the races was about to start so the commentator says "they're at the post at cheltenham" and instantly some1 let a roar "they're at the post in Nenagh too". V. funny.

    Postal Theft is one of my favourite hobbies.

    I stole a whole postal service once! Nobody got anything delivered for 2 whole weeks until they tracked me down in my bedsit.

    Nothing taken from the post but I've had a camera taken from a courier delivered package - bastards delivered an empty torn open packet.

    Some gig tickets I was selling on to someone, I got one failed delivery message and then they vanished. An post had no record of them, I didnt get them back and the person they were for didnt have then either.
