Jerry Hrechka I had an interesting experiences once with the PO. In Nov. of 2006 I did a NonSports card trade with a fellow collector who lived in Balt. On my end I received $200.00 value in cards and I sent him $100.00 value in cards plus a $100.00 USPS MO. On that same day (It was a Monday, cann't remeber the exact date) I mailed a package to Australia.
The overseas package arrived on Thursday. My cards from Baltimore arrived on Wednsday.
Tha cards to Balt. are not delivered in a timely manner. On Dec. 15 I send a $200.00 refund to my trading partner.
After a big hassle with the PO I got a refund for the uncashed $100.00 MO.
The package finally arrives in April, undamaged with no explanation from the PO.
Proof of the date of shipment is on the MO, since I bought it, placed it in the package and mailed it.
My trading buddy returns the uncashed MO to me plus another $100.00.
Only bad experience I've had with the PO but it taught me a lesson.
Next trade I made had Delivery Confirmation plus Insurance.
