Nytrozilla Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Good thing a picture is worth a thousand words. Here's a few thousand about my opinion concerning whether I would pay a special handling charge to help insure a safe delivery of my beloved magazine. I'm on my way to HobbyTown to pick up a copy I won't be ashamed to add to my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I have also gotten that "We Care" envelope from USPS in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Joe... you shouldn't have to buy a replacement copy with your own money. You are a subscriber... you already paid for that issue. Call Golden Bell and tell them your copy arrived damaged. They will mail you a replacement copy.877.463.3127If they want proof, you can email them the photos you posted here.

Mark Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Looks almost exactly like my copy, except I didn't get the free "we care" bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris02719 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Last winter after one of the big snow storms, I got a not from our mail carrier stating that he could not deliver the mail due to the walkway not being clear enough. The thing that confused me was that he walked up the walkway, up onto the porch, and delivered the note, but couldn't deliver the mail? I'm still confused by this almost a year later.

Mark Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 How else was he going to let you know ? I guess writing a letter is out, because they won't deliver it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris02719 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 How else was he going to let you know ? I think I would have figured it out when we stopped getting mail. He didn't have to risk life and limb to let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris02719 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Snow, blocked walkway, no mail, quite confusing.. My confusion lies more in the fact that he didn't deliver the mail, but did deliver a note saying he couldn't deliver it? Seems to me that if you couldn't deliver one you couldn't deliver the other? If it was possible to walk all the way up my unsafe walkway and porch to drop a piece of paper in the mail slot wouldn't it also be possible to drop the mail in with it....just trying to use common sense.

Greg Myers Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 One might think, common sense, would dictate clearing the walkway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High octane Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Growing up in Chicago was great back in the 50's & 60's, but I'm glad that I don't live there anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Last week, I got a call from my mom's care facility telling me they had sent a registered letter, containing a form I needed to sign and return. That letter was in the mail already when they called. We went over the information on the form, and I disputed some of it. So they had to send another registered letter with a corrected form. I got a little green postcard in Monday's mail, and went to the post office on Tuesday and signed for the second (corrected) form. The first (incorrect) form, sent at least a couple of days before the second one, arrived today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyGrowly Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 It got so bad at my house, I changed all billing adresses to my work adress. I receive every thing now and all in one piece. No more of this. Cujo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
