Re: Old Offshore Buried Treasure found !!!

Just to give fair warning to everyone....as of today, we have shipped out 70 of the 100.....that means only 30 left.

These are books that have been sealed in 1989 at the time of publishing and are being sold for the 1989 price of $69.95.

Order online

Re: Old Offshore Buried Treasure found !!!

Please save one for me as mine was stolen in shipping by the USPS.

I received an empty box stamped "received without contents".

Definitely want a replacement. Please advise as to how I should proceed.

Do you want me to e-mail pics of stamped box?

Yes...send me the e-mail photos of the box....especially if you can get a close up of the green delivery recp't tag....that should have a tracking number on it.....send that along also.

We have another copy with your name on it put away.

I'll take your info to the PO and get back to you.

What exactly did the PO tell you when the package arrived empty?

Send me any copies of the claim form that you filled out with them.

King of Thunderboat Row is on e-bay for around $600.

Once we get your order, we will advise you on the S&H costs for the Caribbean.

Sorry for this hassle.

Michael

Bring the box back to the PO and ask them for the proper form to use to file a claim.

As they can clearly see, we paid for a 6 pound book to be shipped. The postal fees were $8.10 and another $.50 for delivery confirmation...totaling $8.60.

They would not have charged us that if the box was empty


Your delivery confirmation number on the green tag should read.......03061070000462261718.

I will work on it from this end. Let me know your results.



WE ARE STOPPING ALL BOOK SHIPMENTS AT THE OLD RATES.

Effective Immediately 1/23/07

We intended to get these books out to our HORBA members and OSO members as cheaply as possible.....we charged the old 1989 rate of $69.95 for the book and $9.00 for S&H.

As can be clearly seen, there wasn't a lot left for handling, boxing, drivng to the PO etc. after the shipping was $8.60.

We are going to re-evaluate the actual costs and the last 30 books will be repriced accordingly and will include insurance on all shipments.
