Santa's Address

**buzz** · 11-18-2009, 04:45 PM

Ok, so since this is my first shot at Secret Santa - and I am a newbie... and absolutely terrified of what Basil and Kevin would call me if my "kid" didn't receive their package...

On the one hand, I really don't want Kevi... err, I mean my "kid" to know that it was I who sent him the flaming turds and asparagus juice.

But on the other hand, if I accidentally send Kevi... *cough* my "kid" a box-load of sweet action and 2 bottles of my best moonshine I don't want the package getting "lost" in the mailman's garage either. No offense mail man... heh heh.

I read through the saga of that football quarterback newbie who stepped in it a couple years ago, so I will be sure to not "lose the DC#" - is having that tracking number sufficient if I leave the return address blank?

What do you guys normally do?

Yep, good idea to keep the DC#. I've removed the return address off more than 1 package I've sent and they have arrived just fine.

None taken

Really, the only reason that we suggest the return address is if your parcel cannot be delivered, we will have some where to return it to. As long as you know that the addy is good, you are going to be okay.

Cool, thanks mail man. Out of curiosity, do people ever try to fool the system by putting the recipient's address in the return address location and then send the package without enough postage (so that it we be "returned")?

All the time, but we just charge postage due to the address that is on there...we get our money either way

...not anything new.
