I just got my latest AP (GiantSlayer #3) and I noticed that the package did not have 'Do Not Bend' stamped on it. Needless to say, My mail carrier bent it and shoved it into my mailbox along with all the mail accumulated due to the long holiday weekend. Are packages no longer stamped 'Do Not Bend'? If the answer is no, can they be?
That's surprising to hear. I'm not sure what would have caused that to not be marked as do not bend. I'll flag this for the tech team to look into.
Additionally, I have set up a replacement copy of Giantslayer #93 in your sidecart.

That is funny to see this. I got my AP today and in big bold print, right there in the corner, "DO NOT BEND". That didn't stop the mail carrier from doing the exact same thing though. I believe it was Ms. Sharaya there that helped me too. Thanks again! I called the local post office after calling customer service and they said they are going to speak with my carrier about that.

"Hey, Joe, some mook called and complained that you folded a package clearly marked "do not fold" when you stuffed it in his mailbox."
"Yeah? So what?"
"So nothing, I just thought it was funny."
There. Carrier spoken to. :)
Thank you so much, Sharaya! I was all set to go down to the PO and complain, but without the 'Do Not Bend' I can see how that would go down. Ed is probably correct and it wouldn't have mattered, but you never know...

JERRY: Hey, I've been trying to jam stuff in the box, like you told me, but sometimes it says, like, "Photographs - Do not bend".
NEWMAN: "Do not bend". (Laughs evilly) Just crease, crumple, cram.. you'll do fine.

All packages shall be marked "Fragile. Smash With Care."
:-)
Update on this: it looks like that lack of the "Do Not Bend" stamp was just a check box that got missed when setting up some shipments. This should not typically be a problem.

I had a package delivered a few years (?) ago from Paizo, containing an AP and a Player Companion book. It was three weeks late, torn all to heck along one side, bent several times, and taped back up.
Paizo replaced the two books, thank you all very much.
When I called the Post Office, "did they insure it?" Answered "no". Their response was basically "tough nuggies, go away".
