Anyone have good luck with the USPS finding their lost auto parts in the system?

while USPS sucks for manhandling your package and not taking any corrective effort along the way, it's my belief that your problem stemmed from a poor packing job by the seller and that is who should ultimately be held responsible.

talk it out and see if you can come to an agreeable term between the two of you. set your expectations a little lower and the seller might wind up surprising you.

also, pay for the insurance in the future.
