packnrat Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 hi new to the escapees "club". but i just received my first issue sent to me (not received others?). i showed to the post office worker, as someone working for the post office opened said mag, both seal were broken. has this been a issue for others? i pay for this, so I should be the first to read it. then sure it can be given away, left at the Dr office, etc. yes i call this theft, as someone detoured it, so they could read something while in the porcelain chamber.

Randyretired Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 We had our mail forwarded via USPS a few years ago. For the first month or so they forwarded our magazines. However, all that arrived was the cover. The rest was gone! Randy 2001 Volvo VNL 42 Cummins ISX Autoshift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whj469 Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Those seals on the magazine are almost always broken when I get them for the past 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_12078 Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 I think almost every sealed magazine I've ever gotten had one or more seals broken. I've seen how busy and automated the USPS sorting centers are, so I never worried about it. I'm pretty sure the various carriers I've had over the years haven't all singled out my magazines as the ones to read on their break. Now if I found coupons clipped out or notes written in the margins maybe...

cactus Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Received my latest copy and both seals were broken. Considered it exposure to the club. And I was not drinking anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packnrat Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 sounds like time to ship then in a sealed baggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_12078 Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 I really doubt anyone is bothering to read them. More likely the seals are breaking during the automated sorting and routing process.

packnrat Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 sounds possible. all i know is back when i paid to have mags sent to my house, they kept showing up two weeks after i could buy them on the stand. and they looked very bad, but then the company's shipping them out started using sealed clear baggies, they started showing up two weeks before on the sales stand. so i base what i know, to say what i say.

Dutch_12078 Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Ok, so obviously there was a slow reading postal employee somewhere that was targeting your magazines and putting his job on the line by taking them home for a leisurely read. It's a good thing the publishers started bagging them to prevent that instead of doing it to minimize handling damaging them.

It is not unusual to not receive our water bill postcard, then get someone else's next month. Post office is not gentle with mail. 3 times I ordered from cross country a dozen hatching eggs, 3 times, even though each one was wrapped very well in bubble wrap, all I got was scrambled eggs. At 1k per box, I have come to hate the post office. Takes forever to get shipping insurance to pay....grrrr Did not matter that all the boxes were marked on all sides extremely fragile. I think that is their clue to play soccer with packages.... 2002 Fifth Avenue RV (RIP) 2015 Ram 3500 Mega-cab DRW(38k miles), 6.7L Cummins Diesel, A668RFE, 3.73, 14,000 GVWR, 5,630 Payload, 27,300 GCWR, 18,460 Max Trailer Weight Rating(For Sale) , living in the frigid north, ND.

About 60 years ago my Dad received a gift subscription to Playboy. The Mailman told Dad that he would have excellent reading material. Dad told the mailman he didn't have any problem with him looking at the magazine. After that, the day the Playboy was delivered the mail came after lunch.
