Mail System Peeve

You know, you never really think of that "WE DON'T SHIP TO PO BOXES!" notice that seems to be on every online shop in the entire world... Until you have a P.O. Box.

I recently (well, a few months ago) moved into this new development in this commercial area... Anyway, the way the mail is setup, I get my mail from a local PO Box. And any packages that arrive, are either manually delivered to my door, or I get a notice in the box to pick it up - depending on how the item was shipped.

Anyway, I'm assuming it's not that way for everyone. Are these companies getting mail back if they send to PO boxes, or what? I don't get it. So what is a boy with a PO Box to do, I ask!!

you can thank all the people who use to dumpster dive and looked for credit card slips and had stuff sent to a PO Box.

the only real solution is maybe send it to someone you know nearby that has a real address to send it to that.

Unfortunately, I don't have any friends that wouldn't dive in and help themselves to my packages...

While we're on the subject... Why doesn't Newegg ship to Canada? There's no excuse for that!

!@#%&!!!!!!!!!
