Well, I guess that all that's going to happen is that the seller of the DVD's will eventually have to issue a refund to the unlucky buyer. Being a cheapskate is going to cost them dearly.

Agreed. Who knows though, the seller may have written down my phone number - but I honestly doubt it.

So that might be how items get lost sometimes and never arrive.

I get items in recycled envelopes too sometimes, and even more often recycled boxes, but they usually put a lot of tape on the new names (both sender's and receiver's names). Just a bit of glue is not a good idea for sure.

I use these envelopes or boxes for rubbish..

As the seller will have to issue a refund, they will hopefully understand what happened and avoid such mistakes in the future.

WOAH….. well you’re a real spit-fire aren’t you! 

Are you the Queen of England? Other than that, I couldn’t care less ‘who you are’ or ‘who I’m talking too’  seriously, we don’t think you’re that important…. So blowing your own trumpet here, is pointless because we just don’t give a F! 

We do care that some poor buyer out there is missing a DVD set that you now have in your unforgiving grinch hands, and that person is who we are most concerned about here…. not you, you big dweeb! 

Also…. Your last paragraph states, and I quote:  “I don’t know what more I can do…..” but you’re hellbent on abusing the responders here who are offering you some suggestions.

 

So here’s my 2 cents that you didn’t ask for!  Don’t bother posting threads here, if your main agenda is to abuse us!  ….. because you have no idea who you’re dealing with 😉

A member, exactly like every other member who posts here

 

Wow, so now anyone who gets something returned to their address is unforgiving and a grinch. Could you be any more insulting or out of line??

 

And don't falsely accuse me of abusing anyone. I've done no such thing, and you know it.

Well it looks like the most likely seller, has a terrible history of sending the wrong items.

Could you be any more insulting or out of line??   YES actually….. I can!   You ain’t seen nothing yet 😂

 

And don't falsely accuse me of abusing anyone. I've done no such thing, and you know it. What a load of croc….. again…. It’s there in black and white. 😎

You do seem to be quite ‘self -serving’ ….. is that really working for you, because you just come across as completely  angry! 
Almost similar to someone else here who visits his ‘rural-remote-farm’ 😉
 You could be ‘twins’.

It is a bit of a weird one.

 

Do you know if the concession stamps would have likely been ones you used on the padded mailer?

 

I think you are probably right and the seller (or poster) is recycling the padded mailer. On the balance of probability though, they didn't pick it up from the tip, they either bought from you at an earlier stage or else someone they know did, and has passed on the padded bag to the seller or poster. Again, we have no evidence the items inside were sold, they could have been a gift for all you know. 

 

I doubt you could do an easy search of ebay either by just searching for a sale of those DVDs because I think it is the case that those records only show for a month, you won't see August sales.

 

Personally, I don't think you have a problem here. They were delivered to you, you have no evidence as to who sent them or who was meant to receive them, there is no 'lost property' spot you can drop them off to, so just keep them or gift to an op shop or someone who would like them.

 

You say it was originally shipped between late Aug/early Oct. In that case, if it was an ebay purchase, then it is long finished. A buyer could, ages ago, have easily filed for item not received and had a refund.

 

There is actually nothing though to suggest it contained an ebay purchase or was being sent to an ebay buyer. All you really know is that a padded bag you once sent an ebay item out in has been reused.

 

Just consider this as one of life's little stumbles for the sender. Not everything can be fixed.
