- VMViola MeentsJul 31, 20251.0I put out my bag of boxes to go to the post office and the mail lady checked the box which had nothing in it and left the bag of ebay boxes on the ground! I called kankakee post office and she said it was garbage. I have a one day turn around on ebay! That went against me! What is wrong with these postal people? I wanted to slap her!

- MLMiss_ La'NaeJun 17, 20251.0The last two times I've tried to return a package the label machine didn't work. The first time was about a month ago most recently last weekend. There's no way that label machine should not be fixed.
