my gf traded some books and they never came... after a while she got an email from the other person saying they got the package they sent back... it had made it to the big office about 30 miles from here and was sent back empty, marked "contents lost"... weird. How does the post office lose books from a sealed package?

I sent $300 through the mail for some cool looking paper once and the person on the other end said it never got there. The guy however trusted me and sent me the paper regardless, wich boosted my trust in him...Maybe it got lost, maybe i got screwed...i dunno but if it was lost, then it made me look like a scandalous motherfucker. The next 300 also never showed up, so at this point things started really sucking, so i told him of the situation and sent him $100 with paypal and never payed the rest. I still owe him money after like 2 years and i feel really bad for it, but i also lost $600 for absolutely nothing. Life sucks.

In the UK we have registered delivery - You pay extra but the postman collects a signature on delivery so there can be no fuck ups like this. Dont you have the same sort of thing over there??

Why don't people just use money orders?

How much money did you loose? If I trade for money, I always prefer cash, just because its easier for me to deal with. I've traded multiple times and received the money without a problem. Try putting the money in an envelope then put that one within another envelope, thats what I tell my customers to do.

Naw, AFAIK, you can make money orders out to "Cash" or "Bearer".
