How many of you received your Heritage Catalogs that were shrink wrapped (in plastic)? Were you charged extra by the US Post Office for excessive taping and wrapping? Please respond...
I WAS CHARGED $9.30 for two Heritage Catalogs today because they were shrink wrapped and the US Post Office viewed this as excessive. I could have refused service which I thought was inappropriate so I paid the $9.30. I don't care about the $9.30...I am very concerned about the packing issue and this DETERMINATION AND FINDING BY THE US POST OFFICE THAT THESE CATALOGS WERE EXCESSIVELY TAPED AND WRAPPED...

Ask them to show you the rules that permit your local postal clerk to charge you for the excessive wrapping AFTER they were accepted by the post office clerk in Texas for mailing to you!!!
Of course, never worry about receiving any coins in the mail in the future especially if you WIN!
It was closer to 40 pounds!

40 pounds is what was on my Fed-X box.
Fortunately, that was a PO I rarely use. I never had that problem at my regular PO. It all depends on who you deal with and their mood.
The next day, today I received the coins I won in the New York Nov. Signature Auction in ANOTHER US Postal Express Mail box!

I didn't see you there yesterday when I picked it up
:edit to add that both catalogues with packaging weighed 7.5 lbs.
Read this thread and one other and it still hasn't come up....
EDITED TO ADD: THIS IS AMAZING! THE WEBSITE NEVER DID COME UP FOR ME BUT MY WIFE JUST BUZZED ME ON THE INTERCOM TO LET ME KNOW THAT A CATALOG JUST ARRIVED BY FEDEX. PROOF POSITIVE THAT IT DOES INDEED TAKE LONGER FOR THE WEBSITE TO LOAD THAN FOR THE CATALOGS TO BE DELIVERED!!!!!!!!!!
LMAOROTFLWTIME!!!!!!!
The best out loud belly laugh I've had in a long time!

Randy, I think you spent more than me this year. Perhaps it is because I register in person to bid in signature auctions. I do that just to view auction lots at the shows, even if I don't bid on anything.
BTW I think printed catalogues will be a thing of the past in 10 years or less. Well they might print up a few hundred for a few super high rollers. However I think folks like me will end up with CDs. I don't keep my catalogues because the take up too much space, I only keep CDs.
