Default Freakin lame-ass people

I ordered some shirts online about a month ago. Some were preorders, so I opted to receive them all at once. Well, they shipped last Wednesday from MA, and were supposed to be here Saturday. Well, USPS delivered a day early, and left the package on my doorstep, and signed off their "delivery confirmation" sheet (Because the sender opted for no signiture confirmation)

Needless to say, it looks like some local punks stole my shirts :madfawk:. I've been waiting a month for them, and then some time between 10 and 1, someone lifted the package off my front porch. Now I'm all pissed, and the shipper hasn't gotten back to me, so as it stands, I'm SOL and out about $75 worth of shirts :sad:

have you also contacted USPS? as i'm sure you know, stealing mail is a serious federal offense.

Print up a fake address label, stick it on a box with junk in it, then wait to see if someone comes to take that one.

Yeah, I've talked to them. The most they did was talk to the carrier who confirmed it was left at my house. I'm actually gonna call the police too, because this is the second item stolen from my front porch, and if it's the same punk who stole both, he's halfway to commiting grand theft.

They stole a heatsink last time

Already thought of that. Just gotta figure out how to set up a camera so they wont notice they're being filmed.

i think it would be kinda funny to set up a fake package with a dye pack... when they open it up BOOM! and they look like a smurf for a week.
