Um... how about NO

I ordered something through amazon. Amazon tracking says it was delivered on Friday. I had been checking every day, it wasn't delivered.

So I contact the seller. They tell me USPS says it was delivered to SC. Could someone have picked it up there?

I was nice. I told them "SC is a LONG way away from CA."

So they're sending me another one.

WTF USPS?!

Isn't SC the abbreviation for Southern California?

Just remember, a Trojan on your computer is bad. A Trojan on your member is good.

And a Trojan getting past your offense/defense is doubleplusungood!

Haha, South Carolina for those of you not in America.

At times South Carolina is a substitute for South Dakota. The package even went to SC even though neither the city nor zip code exist in SC. I do wonder about people sometimes. A southern State on the Atlantic Coast vs a landlocked Northern Plains State 300 miles or so south of Canada.

played a game of "pass the package" with the USPS last year with 2 other people in my town, neither of whom were on my street. that was fun to fix...

haven't had a package wind up on the wrong side of the country yet though. that's a hell of a trick.

Not that much of a trick for somebody who lives in Bangor (or - something I've posted a few times - Duluth).

YOU FREAKY DUTCH sorry someone had to do it

I once had something shipped from Arizona to me in Georgia, and it took a couple months longer than it was supposed to. Why? It went to ALASKA.

I was selling a bunch of old gaming stuff on ebay a few years back. I had a lot of modules and things I'd never gotten around top using and they were from the 1980s so I was getting decent prices for most and some amazing prices for a few things.

Anyway, a guy in Italy bought something. It didn't show. Finally showed up back in my mailbox with a "no such address" note from the Italian Post Office.

I double check the address with the buyer, He tells me it's right. And he was willing to pay to have me resend it.

So I put it in a new mailer (the old one was a bit battered) and the exact same address.

About a week later he emails me to let me know it arrived ok.

Same address. Identical packaging. First time they couldn't find it, second time, no problem.

I had something to be delivered to Victoria, Aus from New Zealand end up going via Victoria, Canada

I've heard of a couple trying to fly to Oakland, CA. They accidentally boarded a flight to Auckland, New Zealand.

One I've mentioned - I was doing an LTL linehaul from Springfield MA to Montreal. Got the paperwork from the dispatch window, and as I was walking away I took a quick look at the master waybill. Headed right back to the dispatch window and asked them if they were sure that one shipment (going to Ontario) belonged on the trailer. Dispatcher immediately called for a shunt truck to bring the trailer back into a door - shipments to Ontario routinely went on the trailer to Montreal (where they'd be forwarded by the Canadian LTL company's Montreal terminal), except THIS shipment was intended for the city of Ontario, California.
