Returned to sender as your address does not exist.

I totally understand your situation, as I don't have street names or house numbers either in my village. More than that, there are two other men with the same name and surname as mine in my village, and I've had the misfortune of having my correspondence delivered to them. When I'm expecting something I usually let the postman know it's for me, or I add my mother's name in brackets under mine, like "Family of...". I got packages from France or US, and the only package I ordered from e-bay, sent from Hong Kong, reached me well. So I guess you're being conned by the e-bay sender.

that's kind of sweet actually to have a place where they just know where you live tho..:) i guess the business is just being anal about it. i've had delivery guys knock maybe once and expect me to hear them in the back of the house..then leave a slip i have to pick it up downtown,which is a pain in the butt,i have to find somebody to watch biddy to go get it.. the door bell works..i don't know why they don't use it.

What a nuisance and what a rip-off. Was it sent express...was a signature required. Get them to send it again or re-send it. I live in a village too and we don't have postal deliveries, instead having to collect our mail from the post office. Luckily, we have a very good mail service here. Hope you find your quilt mate.

OMG my sister had that happen with a company that was to deliver her new bed. They told her that her address didn't exist. She verified her address (another company had delivered her couch there!) and again they said it didn't exist and she was like how can it not exist im standing right in it! They refused to deliver it a second time...even tried charging her delivery fees for the first time. She was MAD because she spent all day waiting for them and they never even CALLED to ask for a different address when they couldn't find her or let her know it wasn't going to be delivered...just shipped it back to Calgary. She ended up canceling her entire order from that company and buying everything somewhere else. I dont have a "true" address. I get my mail from a postal box because rural Saskatchewan doesnt have home mail delivery or really even street addresses. I could give places a land location but they wont deliver to that. I'd contact the seller and request a tracking number. If they wont give you one file a compalint with ebay.

Obviously you've ordered online and so you'd fill out an online form. If the company did not accept the generalization, it would have been an instant notice of "incorrect data" or some other techno mumbo jumbo that basically means the address is wrong. Hmm, I'd be contacting the company on this one, maybe through email or on the phone if I could. I'd want to know why the quilt didn't come as it doesn't seem to be the post office's fault, atleast not your local branch! I don't think you've been conned, and I can't think of any equally stupid reason a thing wasn't shipped / didn't arrive.

I've never liked Elvis, especially that song. I believe the actual words are Return To Sender, Address Unknown. So many people like his music but I was born a little too late for that.

Oh, poor thea, I remember the quilt, which you have ordered. It seems we had that discussion a very long time ago, and today I read in some other discussion, that you had also purchased the old books which you wanted to buy. Hope that also does not reaches the same fate as the quilt. Seriously speaking, usually ebay returns back your money if it is not supplied to you within a certain period of time. That is what is mentioned in their website in India, so I do not think you might loose your money. I can understand the no address business, because even in rural India, they put the address as so and so post office. Just check up once again with the rural post office, or better still send a email to the British retailer.

Sorry to Hear the transaction didn't work out for You on this,Thea...Have you managed to Make contact with the bunch selling these homing Duvets?

This problem is no difference to where I stay. There is no proper delivery address as the village where I stay do not exist in the post office map. I never order anything online for this simple reason. Unless you are staying in a housing estate where the postmen can easily deliver any goods ordered, I am left with no choice but to abandon the idea of purchasing online.

So let's wait what your inquiry's reply is. In this case, I don't know; there must be a mistake somewhere, somehow. I don't think it's the postal mistake at all.. nor the other party, bu let's just hope we can find out the real deal; whose at fault or at least, where does the mistake lies upon...hmmmmp, so summarily for now, this leaves us with a no-brainer. I would be frustrated if I were you as well.

Thea Somewhere in Greece The postman knows Haven't had anything go missing in years. I did have a couple of things, insured through the post office, go missing. I had bought them off of e-bay from the same seller. Weird thing is, the second one did eventually show up a month later.

I hope u haven't been taken advantage of by a scammer on ebay. They are there. I read a discussion other day where a man had been scammed on ebay. I don't think any place is safe nowadays with all the hoodlums that there are out there. I just don't trust people because u can't like u use to could. I have ordered my grandaughter something for christmas from a catalog i received. I am worried about getting it before christmas. Hope u get your duvet, i know u need it in the cold weather.

Now let me think now. Reasons why it has not arrived. Thinks: Thinks again: Light bulb moment: I know, says she happily:Someone in the U.K wrote your address on the palm of your hand and then sweated.A moron thought it fun to send your package via Afghanistan.Do I have any reason? No. I learnt not to have things posted to me many years ago and wait for people to visit and bring what I need. I hope that it eventually arrives. Meantime, keep warm.

Hi thea This just isn't right at all. I would contact paypal and then ebay about your transaction. I oreder a ring a couple of years ago from ebay. I too paid for it thru paypal. I contacted them first and then they started a search for me. I then the same day contacted ebay about it as well. Then I sent the seller and email asking where my shippment was. They responded back very fast and sent me another one at no charge. The first never showed up. Don't give up until you get some answers sweetie. Let me know how that turns out for you. You know what to do.....KEEP SMILING...

I am knocking on wood that I don't have to put up with something like that...I would be wondering myself....boarding the next plane probably to choke the life out of the guy I ordered it from....what a putz!

Nope I have a real address. So, now, I have a question, why don't you all have addresses? Do your streets have names? And, also, since you don't have an address does that mean you don't have to pay property tax? Oh, I guess that was more than one question huh?

It sounds to me, and apologies if someone else already mentioned this, that the sender did not fill in your details correctly when sending it causing it to be returned. Otherwise the only other thing is that you have unfortunately been victim to a con artist, which if it is the case I hope you've managed to get a full refund either directly or via going the procedures on ebay and paypal.

As an online business owner, I am fairly experienced when it comes to things going missing in the post. We do not get many when compared to the amount that we send out, but they do go missing from time to time. Most of the time, they turn up eventually with no explanation to where they have been hiding, but sometimes we never see the products again. We send more expensive items with tracking so that there are recorded points that the package has gone through, but once we lost one that had never been scanned onto any truck at all! It was as if it did not exist. Australia Post have insurance for some parcels, so they paid us for that one. Most times when they go missing, we resend the package to the customer and instruct Australia Post to send the original parcel back to us if it turns up and it usually comes back eventually. One time though, we sent a small item to a customer 3 times and they kept saying that they never received it. We then sent it registered post so that they had to sign for it and we never heard from them again. Perhaps they now have 4 of the item that we sent them? Another time we received a phone call from a customer saying that their parcel had not turned up, but when we got Australia Post to search for it, they told us that the customer had received it as they had signed for it themselves! I think they were trying to rip us off!

Hi thea, there is a way. Ask them for bills to your place. There have to be some invoices, delivery challans, and stuff like that on which your address is there, in addition, the day when it was sent to your place. All these are marked on the cover of the package! I believe the package landed elsewhere, thanks to the airport authorities. And naturally, it was stamped as address does not exist. Lots of luggage mishaps occur. This is one of those. :( Cool down, ask them to send it once again as this possibility seems quite high. :)

...Hi thea, What a bummer, nothing aggravates me more than ordering something and not receiving it, especially after paying for it. I once bought something on e-bay that I really wanted, the gentleman who was selling the item happened to live nearby, I almost wish he hadn't found that out or suggested what he did. He decided to drive over and deliver it himself instead of mailing it. Well there is a home with the same address as mine but west instead of east, he went there and when I told him he took it to the wrong address he didn't want to retrieve it for whatever reason. I got my money back, but I really wanted the articles. So, la ve. We have some mailmen over here, as reported in newspaper articles at least one, who stashed hundreds of letters in his home instead of delivering them. So I guess we are all lucky our mail gets to us when it does. Three of my checks were completely lost one time in the mail, which really ticked me off. I hope your quilt arrives. Take it easy.
