N&G Secret Santa

Yeah, In my experience postal office workers don’t know their policies or shipping that well. I had a postal employee tell me that records didn’t qualify for media mail once, that it was only for movies. I had to bust out the USPS site to show her what items qualified.

Same thing happened to me, they insisted that it needed to be a book and finally they were like, "let's just say it's a book" ;) and act like they were doing me a huge favor, just this one time by letting me get away with it. :rolleyes:

LOL, this is why I provide as little information as possible. I just go in there and declare it Media Mail and they ring it up. No one has ever questioned me. I should probably *knock on some wood now.

Santa came 😍😍😍

two real world picks too! The label of the moment! I’m really excited to give these a go. I’ve heard @Skalap rave about Les Amazones D’Afrique and I’ve been meaning to give them a go so it’s great to have it and after combing the real world website the breath had been another act I’d been meaning to check out.

Santa you smashed it! I’m sorry but I couldn’t work you out from the note (see the current AoTM thread, I’m no sleuth) but I really appreciate this. Thank you so much!

Glad you liked it, wanted to add a more personal touch, but sadly time and distance didn't let me. Hope you enjoy them and let me know how they are, maybe I'll get them down the road.

I mean the experience I had above was exactly that until she asked me what it was... same location there is a dude that’s like “this is a record isn’t it? Anything good?”

Woohoo! Thanks so much Santa @ThePakoBuelna

Yeah they’re great choices that I’m excited to try out, challenging me to try something new but in a way I wanted! You did great, I’ll report back when I spin them, I’m waiting on some new inner sleeves to arrive before I can wash them but once that’s done they’ll be straight on the table and I’ll let you know what I think!
 
Dear @Eriatarka,
I have in my hands a wishlist I can only imagine was intended for my anagram arch-nemesis. This happens from time to time, but dear lord, my child. This is simply profane. While it was very likely a simple dyslexia-related mistake, I fear the rules are the rules. You’ve landed yourself quite squarely on the naughty list. However, as I fear it may be some time before you’re able to right your wrongs, I will set one last Christmas present under your tree this year. Against my judgement, Mrs. Claus streamed some of your wickedness and assured me this particular record was altogether harmless. (Though now that I think on it, Mrs. Claus has been utterly vile in bed these last few nights...) Ahem! Anyhow, please double check your envelopes from now on. The poor souls at the post are rather dead this time of year and won’t be pleased having to make an extra trip, especially to Hell.

Stay in touch!
Nick
