I now have three books that have been sent to me and not arrived. One I got an empty envelope (from Teachie), and the other two appa says were sent in the same envelope as two books that did arrive. So now when I go to the mailed tab to see what's en route to me, these books are showing up... and I can't mark them received because they're not. How should we handle this? I don't really like having them hanging out there, though I guess that's probably the easiest thing.

I think we've marked them received in the past and put a note in there saying they were lost. |

I thought we put the note in saying they appeared lost but left them there until the person got a replacement somehow.... we should probably discuss this and make sure our handling is consistent. I do know that some of the books replaced through the Pay It Forward thread were left owing/mailed until someone replaced them and then the updated info was put into the database showing someone else sent and a new link..... I do think it's best that we leave them a fair amount of time as "Mailed" - books sometimes do show up - we don't want to mark them received too quickly...... |

In Pepper's case, I think it's save to say they are lost if they weren't in the envelopes though. I'm half with it today. So don't mind what I say.

I missed the part about the same envelope - but maybe appa's not sure - I'm also missing 2 books she mailed me the same day and she pm'd to say she was trying to check into both Pepper's and mine.....

Yeah, I'm wondering if Appa wasn't half-asleep when she packaged up the books, as I don't recall the envelope being torn up at all. The book from Teachie, however, I KNOW is lost, as I got an envelope and no book.

Let's get those definitely lost ones into the Pay It Forward thread for sure. That's exactly the reason for which it was created. (Well, that and for people gone missing.) |
