This is an odd one.
Our mail is delivered to Super Boxes not door to door.
I pick my mail up the other day and there is a handfull of Ebay payments.
I go home and open them all up.
I get one for 19.94 dollars.
I did not sell anything for this amount.
It includes an item number so i search for it.
Turns out it is for a Cup and Saucer, and the seller is in the same town as me.
Stange how did they get my address? Why send it to me. I take a look at the from of the envelope, and the address is for someone with the same last name, same street but different first name ..I am Mike and this is for Mary...turns out it is the house right accross the street from me.
The Postman put it in the wrong box. I wonder how many payments she got that was meant for me..I now know where some missing payments may have ended up.
I have not spoke with her yet as she has not been home...
I just thought this was kinda funny so I figured I would share!

Good grief . . . . will there come a time when a group of neighbors will stand around complaining about their eBay fees, the way they do the water or electric or cable bills now? Kinda scarey to think about!
