You are that special type of strange, like Sriracha ice cream. Very delicious!

I feel like my mailman never delivers our mail on Saturdays.

Thought this mail to address was funny :P. I wonder if they would leave it at the dry cleaners.

The drycleaners is probably located on the first floor of the apartment building. At least I would guess as that's not uncommon.

Ended up having to cut it off :P. 40 character limit on the street address when printing labels through eBay. Was a single game and he said it would fit in his mail box anyways :P.

Does anyone else get deals from eBay periodically saying that if you sell we'll give you a coupon? I just sold DMC1 for $3 got a $10 coupon. I had another one a few months back.

I got free $8 voucher. I am more surprised by the low price of DMC1 , how come this is so cheap most retro games I want on Ebay are $20+ no shipping

It's a really common game that can still be bought new/sealed for less than $20, or you can just buy the HD collection for (often) $15-20.

PS2 in general is like that though. There are rarer games, but a lot of the library is pretty cheap.

We have a part-timer who works my "normal" mailman's route every other Saturday. She's brutal - unless it's something that is guaranteed delivery (like signature confirmed) she lets it wait until Monday. I check tracking on stuff of course and it will arrive at my local PO on a Friday night, yet somehow doesn't get brought the next day (but the generic junkmail does).

Occasionally she'll bring stuff if she thinks it'll fit in the mailbox - even if it doesn't...she finds a way to get it in there. Heaven forbid drive the 2 blocks down our drive to drop it off like they're supposed to.

I've mentioned it to my mailman when he brings 10 packages on a Monday - he's frustrated too.
