yea kinda bad.

very sad It happens a lot even when things get marked fragile... I started trying to avoid sending fragile things or ordering them from company website so they are responsable for them

I mailed both exchanges out this afternoon. When I got home my exchange was waiting for me. It came from MA, but I didn't see a not inside. Unfortunately, most of the items were not just broken, but smashed. I received a set of Halloween tea towels, perfect for my new kitchen, a Halloween pumpkin basket, two Halloween bear figurines, one weas broken in half, but fixable. The rest of the items were literally in thousands of pieces. The box had fragile marked all over it, but it did not make it to me very well. I was a bit sad, but I love the items that did make it. Thank you.

, oh no another shippment that was broken, and such .


Maybe the senders had insured the packages. Senders if you did, could you pm me.

I know that when I send things out, I put fragile, and handle with care all over it so that it is very visible. I get teased about it at the post office, but they do say that at least everyone will know to be careful with it. And I also have had a few times where things were still broken, so as I always say, once the items are out of your hands, there is nothing that we can do, but just hope that it all arrives there safely . I hope we do not have any other incidents, and with all safe arrivals.
Sorry to the both of you that had packages that did not come in one piece .

 

[mommytotwo]

To those of you who have not yet sent out your exchanges, PLEASE wrap all fragile items very well so that it will prevent the items from breaking.
And write FRAGILE big, all over the box, and hope for a safe arrival.

I am so sorry that your items were damaged. I never even thought to insure them.

Senders do not usually insure them, but I like to check with them, just in case they by chance did so that they are aware of the situation, and can go from there.

 

[Disneydonnam]

Hopefully my other package will arrive safely.

 

[mommytotwo]

Yes, let us cross our fingers that all the others arrive safely. The postal system needs to do a better job in handling all parcels.

 

[Disneydonnam]

We are leaving in the morning for Disney. I will not be online until Monday to find out if they arrived safely.
