I've been on maybe a little longer? I think since 98?

I've had one package that didn't show up. And I'm not even sure about that one. It was a strip of those gumball machine cards in the plastic capsule. The seller said it was it in a box that was just big enough. It also likely showed up on a day the crappy contractor I had was working... so maybe lost, maybe stolen?

On outgoing, I did have one that maybe didn't arrive. A 400ft film in a steel can inside a reinforced bubble envelope.
Sent it out, and a couple months later I got a portion of the envelope back in one of those "sorry we wrecked that package" bags. (The stamp collectors call them body bags... )
The buyer never complained, and never replied when I asked and offered a refund. So I have to assume he did eventually get it.
