Pirate shipping.

Spuzz I've always used Priority, so this would be new to me also. I was surprised when I saw delivery time only 4 days. Back when I was shipping up there every week, I had hella luck getting things delivered in 3-5 days, Priority. They must 'keep a list' as it started out being 14 days every time. But after 50 times or so, it suddenly dropped.

Par4QC live and learn.....will be a good test run....and thankfully they are his fees to pay

Par4QC Ok, package shows delivered 'at front door'. Does customs just send a bill, or is this normal delivery?

Looks like normal delivery. UPS usually gives you a yellow "attempted delivery" notice with amount owing.
Cross your fingers.

Fedex sent me a bill in the mail. That one was two years ago.
:/

sdandrea1 Yeah, I haven't figured out the 'WTF' yet myself.
Near as I can get in my mind is that someone has hacked into USPS & UPS, making up numbers for their systems and are taking their payments. It's so cheap everyone is using it. Instead of taking millions up front, they do a bit at a time so it's not noticed. Scans show good, so they go through.
Maybe it's Mike.

j/k

I will add something here I noticed last night.....insurance through PirateShip. Don't bother. Long story short, if the package gets delivered, insurance is moot. Damaged goods or not. (from what I understood from reading their site)

reading? nah, seems more like you might be illiterate or stone drunk, which would explain a lot of your other nonsense on this topic .

"USPS will provide compensation for the postage cost for missing package claims. When filing a missing package claim with USPS, there will be a field available in the claims form to declare your postage cost. There, you'll need to enter the value you paid for postage in Pirate Ship, and must use your Shipment page as proof of payment.

For claims for damaged packages, USPS won't provide compensation for the postage cost. This is because USPS has fulfilled the underlying service that was paid for (transit and delivery of the package), even if the contents were damaged in the process. So, you can only claim the product cost in the Priority Mail claims process.
"

They won't reimburse the POSTAGE cost for a misdelivered or damaged package. That's about as night and day difference as what you claimed. Further, it has nothing to do with pirate ship, that USPS policy and would be the same exact thing as if you went into the post office, bought postage+insurance there in person, and had the same thing happen to your package.

UnholyDefenestrator78 Well, is that for the extra insurance that you might buy? Which comes from PirateShip, not USPS or UPS.

I do read quite well, in fact.
Loss claims will not be covered if the Carrier confirms the successful delivery of a Package to the correct destination address.

Meaning.....if everything is destroyed inside the box......tough fucking shit buddy!! Contact the P.O. to get your $50 for that $200 broken item!! And good luck then.

You cannot buy extra ins. from USPS or UPS when using PirateShip, you only get their minimum. The extra ins. you purchase comes through PS' Shipsurance.

ode Lol....why TF would u do that

I use it a a drop off for my shipments. I was in the store and asked out of curiosity.

Hey look, OMG, QC is back to go all

On his previous

OK, but seriously, where to start.

In the above you are talking about a package that has damaged contents

Yet,
You then go to quote their policy on
PACKAGE LOSS CLAIMS

Par4QC Loss claims will not be covered if the Carrier confirms the successful delivery of a Package to the correct destination address.

Now,

Bear with me here, as this is apparently difficult for you,

But PACKAGE LOSS CLAIMS ARE NOT THE SAME AS PACKAGE DAMAGE CLAIMS.

In shipping and freight

Generally speaking in the freight and shipping logistics industry there are claims for

there are claims for
Package loss
Package damage
Package shortage
Package concealed damage
Package concealed shortage

Even your preferred favorite company walks you through explanations on different types of claims, exclusions, policies, effects of coverage, etc .

This isn’t your homeowner’s policy. The word loss here doesn’t mean “loss of value caused by damage”.

It means …

THE PACKAGE IS FUCKING LOST!

As in, you claim you didn’t receive it. MISSING. LOST. NOT RECEIVED. GONE. STOLEN. Etc.

So why would PirateShip and their Insurance Broker/Agent not be involved or cover a package reported LOST when the Carrier claims it was in fact delivered? Because this involves criminal action such as porch pirates, internal employee theft, etc. In other words things that need to involve the OIG, Local , State , or Federal Law enforcement , or more, depending on the scope and specifics of the situation.

Now, do please continue going on badmouthing a company over something you don’t even understand, despite the fact that it’s so obvious and easy to understand that even someone you think isn’t worth human life and should kill themselves just fucking schooled your dumb ass on it.
