That's pretty bad. At least this was returned. It looks like you don't have much luck with USPS.Quote:

I do believe that when I ship it out, I will put insurance on it then.Quote:

If it happened once, it probably won't happen again.Quote:

There is a weight limit of 70 lb for domestic and 20lb for international, so be careful to not let it get that heavy.Quote:

70lbs! Hmm... (wondering how to stuff a computer case into a usps box...)Quote:

Sorry guys I forgot about this. I will get it out asap. Now I gotta find the box. I think I set it in my garage.
knowledgegranted and The Black Pumpkin now meet the requirements. And can you fix my name on the list?
Nah. It's much easier for me to PM OvRiDe and have him change your screen name! :PQuote:

Has this been shipped out yet?
I don't think so. If it has, then it's on its way to me.
I figured everyone forgot about it haha. I have plenty of stuff waiting to be had.Quote:

I might just do that, I have a ton of stuff I don't need anymore and want rid of sooner than later.Quote:

It will be off to DrumThumper tomorrow. I'll leave the adding the notebook, documenting, and pictures to him.
The tracking number is 0103 8555 7497 5752 0728
If it gets to be too big, we could start using a large flat rate box.
Did you remember to take pics and document the stuff?
I know what I put in there; I can write it up, but I couldn't find my camera, so DrumThumper will need to do the pictures. He or somebody else after him will also have to add the notebook, because I didn't have one handy.Quote:

Everything is intact. The box, on the other hand...
Gotta love the USPS.
WOW its like Daeja-Vu USPS must not like TGIMBOEJ's very much.
oh and now that this is going I would like to ask everyone to read the rules. We can forget about the notebook for now.
I send and recieve packages through USPS all the time, and they're always ok.Quote:

Maybe they just don't like TBCS or TBCS TGIMBOEJs.
First off I lied. We have a casualty. Here are the pics:
That don't look good...
That explains a lot.
Sound Card: 0. Pump: 1.
That'll come in handy for someone.
That thing is much larger than I thought it would be. Here's a comparison picture:
Gauge and Motorola Razr.
5 1/4" cover. I'm guessing from a Coolermaster?
And the pump. I'm taking this out. Been wanting to get into watercooling, with a pump, I'll have no excuse not to!
Other than some bent pins, the sound card doesn't look too bad.
At least everything else got there ok. Glad to see that the sound card was the only casualty.
well, it came off of a boat. You have to be able to see it from a small distance.Quote:

Speaking of Caps, there's also a bag with two good sized caps in there as well. I'm guessing that they are currently uncharged?
Sweet nice grab on the pump. If the sound card is still there when I get the box I will solder the caps back on and try to straighten the pins.
In that case, I'll leave it in.Quote:

Sounds interesting. Add me to the list; next time I visit my parents' house (where most of my extra hardware is stored) I'll go ahead and start another box myself (well, if my cousin didn't clean everything out...I told him to take anything he wanted, we'll see what's left :P ). We could cover a lot more area a lot faster, and have a lot more inventory in the boxes, if we do a lot of them simultaneously. I've got an idea for a tracking application that could show all the boxes, where they are, contents, etc.... :think: hmmm, I've been trying to find a useful programming project..
I'll get this mailed out sometime next week. In the process of moving into my new house.
Get it mailed out yet?
Going out tomorrow. Buzz, I expect some pics of the swag. And if you grab what I put in (should be right on top) you better mod it!
Is it too late to sign up? I've got some really good junk.
no its not. I will add you to the list tonight This is a running list btw. Signups never close and anyone who meets the requirements can join in at any time.
I should probably get added to the list as well, I have some junk that needs cleaned up! :)
