It looks like whatever that package is/was, it was sent to IN and is now being re-routed to you (I'm assuming in the east bay area)? I wonder if it just took this long to get to you since it was sent to the wrong address but still may get there.

Hello Jason,

I am in Indiana. It was sent from "Jose" in California to me in Indiana, but it never made it to my house. It showed as "delivered" at the post office, but was never delivered to my house. I contacted the post office and was told they would research it, but then it showed as "return to sender"...so I assume it was sent back to "Jose", but has been sitting in Oakland since the 22nd.

I was able to find a photo of this individual Hope this helps, so at least NOW we know what he looks like and was lucky enough to get one of him actually holding the cards as evidence , we'll call this "exhibit A"

What ended up happening with all of this? It looks like he has posted them for sale on craigslist now.

package never received. Post office scanned it as delivered, then changed that status. It has been sitting in a postage center in Oakland since February 22nd. My local post office has attempted to contact the post office in Oakland to inquire about the item and have it re-sent, but they have been unsuccessful. They had me fill out a "Mail Recovery Form". I have chalked it up as a lost cause, but will be sure to reach out to this poster on Craigslist and see what I can discover there.

If anyone has any pull at the PO and can help, it would be appreciated.

USPS Response:
James,
Your Mail Recovery form has been received by the MRC search team and they will contact you via email with any updates. This is not a fast process but usually if you are going to hear anything it would be between 6 weeks and 3 months.

There a couple of another options ( assuming the cards are in the package)


1) Have you tried calling the Oakland Postmaster directly ?

2) I have had some success filling out a online customer request on USPS

3) You could file a request for help with the US Postal Commission

4) It is an election year, you could try a quick note to your US Rep asking for help with USPS

So which is it: There is a box of old newspapers sitting in the Oakland Post Office, or the Paytons are in there and this craigslist person is selling cards he doesn't have?

[jgmp123]

I will update everyone that after reaching out multiple times to the craigslist posting that it looks like Jose is posting to, I received a package in the mail yesterday that included 6 signed Water Payton cards, a signed Jerry Rice card, a signed Deion Sanders card, and a signed Bo Jackson card.

This is not what I originally agreed to purchase from him, but at least he sent something. I wanted to make sure I updated you guys on the situation. I will post a photo later.

Here's a photo of the cards sent...

SO even if they are all bad it is better than getting nothing?
