<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 3472537, member: 27832&quot;]I had one or two incidents where I left a package in a basket or put it in a slot, and it never showed up in the tracking system -- but it <i>did</i> get delivered. All the same, I decided it was worth my time to hand packages to a postal employee, watch them get scanned, and get a receipt. (I&#039;ve never had occasion to use the receipt, because once the items are scanned, they always show up in tracking.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I seem to recall that the USPS also doesn&#039;t honor insurance if you don&#039;t hand your package to an employee. (Specifically, I can use &quot;schedule a pickup&quot; to have them grab the package from my mailbox, but not if I want it to be insured.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry for your (apparent) loss. I&#039;m also offended that eBay and PayPal claim to offer Seller Protection for tracked packages, but gloss over the fact that they&#039;ll deny it if it never gets scanned. They can&#039;t really do anything else -- otherwise, it&#039;s dead easy to print a shipping label, toss it in the trash, and say &quot;they lost my package, pay up&quot; -- but they should make this very clear and obvious in their terms.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
