SS - Did anyone get screwed out of a present?

[-Moe-]

Did everyone get their present?

Did anyone get a present that was clearly statistically significantly under the budget?

Was this the first fully successful SS exchange?

Thoughts on a Sunday night.

Hmmm, perhaps I should post this in the morning. Wonders...

[fuckstick]

I think we had a thread on this a week or so ago and everyone had either gotten their present already or were expecting it soon and no one had gotten screwed.

[Doc_Lobster]

Well...I haven't gotten mine. She has messaged me a few times, but the story is a tad odd.

Like, she said the tracking shows that it was delivered on December 30th, but that was a Sunday. So...not sure.

[silva]

I've talked to mine to be sure she got it, she wasn't sure but planned to check her buildings main office.

[missyny]

As far as i know, it was successful! ;D

[missyny]

Ooooooh. Rock. Really?

[-Moe-]

SOMEONE DID NOT GIVE MY ROCKY A GIFT?!!?!?!?

[Doc_Lobster]

Well, idk. I don't want to be a jerk because I really don't know.

I was late in getting mine/AWing it, but she sent it on time. I left town the day before it got here and then was gone for 12 days.

Doc, if yours doesn't come through and you like scarves, I will knit you one in the same pattern as tators' - I have some blue yarn I need to use up.

That is so sweet of you to offer! You really don't have to do anything though, it's fine.

And who knows, it might show up tomorrow.

[-Moe-]

So she says she sent it?

Did she tell you what it was?

Did she give you the tracking number? (it at least shows that package was delivered to "Rocky's Town" on "Sunday 30th".)

[fuckstick]

Where's Dowager? Maybe she can see who your SS was and we can get the full story?

[Doc_Lobster]

She said she sent it, but none of those other things.

I just emailed her to ask about it.

I probably shouldn't even have said anything, I feel like I am being a jerk and tattling.

[luckyval]

There needs to be some statute of limitations on SS delivery. We're not quite at a full month, but still....

[-Moe-]

Stop saying you're a jerk.

You entered into the exchange with an expectation that you'd also get a gift and you didn't. It's not your fault.

You're right, it may be on its way, or she might be stuck under something heavy and unable to send it right now, but it would be nice to know.

[fuckstick]

Doc you're not being a jerk or a snitch. Its possible something happened where it said it got delivered but it didn't, or it went somewhere else. This way you can clear up whether thats the case, or they just flaked. And maybe you can still get something.

[fuckyourcouch]

oh yeah, you're definitely not the jerk for saying something.

[ralphlauren]

Ew you are not being a jerk at all...

I got screwed years ago and it is just dickish.....Dont commit to something and not deliver

[-Moe-]

So wait, you guys don't know still who it was that was supposed to send you the present?

Or you know who it was?

[dowagercountess]

Rock you have a gift headed your way from some special secret elves.

[Doc_Lobster]

You are a saint for dealing with all of this, DC.

Well if it was supposedly delivered is she doing something to find out what happened?

I shipped something overnight by Fedex to my grandma so it would arrive on Christmas eve. It was delivered down the street to her neighbor (she lives in a rural area). Luckily her neighbor brought it to her but otherwise it would have really sucked.

I live in an apartment building and USPS packages get put in lock boxes with the key in your regular letter box, so unless the mail carrier put the key in the wrong letterbox I don't think anyone else could have gotten it.

But who the hell knows, mistakes do happen and not everyone is honest.

[-Moe-]

Well, you should tell her that you never got it so she can make a claim!!!

(and if she ordered the present from an org, like amazon, they'll resend it).

MOSTLY, WHO WAS IT!

(ask for the tracking number!)

[silva]

True. I sent mine but the recipient doesn't know if she got it. Once she confirms, I'll follow through appropriatly.

[Deleted]

This makes me sad that Doc hasn't gotten her gift.

I never got my original cd from the cd swap, I dunno who had me, and was bummed.

JanieJones and Peachy were amazing though and sent me great runner-up CDs! How sweet is that?


Sent from my cream of crap.

This totally happened to me last year although my gift was not quite this late. Holy shit!
