May. 23rd, 2007 10:09 pmThe lens I rented shows that it was delivered today. Unfortunately, it was signed for by someone named 'R. Pratt' and is not at my house. This is despite my definitely having put the correct address on the order and it being shipped with signature confirmation. Either someone came to my house at seven-thirty in the morning and signed for my package, or the mailman (yes, it is a mailman) picked the wrong house. In either case, it would appear that they either didn't bother to check the signatory against the name on the package, or they just don't care who signs for it.
Either way, it looks like I'm calling the post office again tomorrow.
I'm getting really annoyed with the United States Postal Service. The shipment is insured against loss; hopefully that will still cover it if the postal records show delivery. It's a Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM that costs half as much to replace as I paid for my camera. *sighs* At least it wasn't a multi-thousand dollar super-telephoto or something.
