What happened to that topic where the poster was offering discounted shipping labels?

[plidosir]

I was looking for it today but the topic has been deleted: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/fs-cheaper-shipping-of-hardware.37493/

What happened? Was it a scam after all or not?

My guess is that there are some that voilates 9. Like this:

The post wasn't a scam but guess it was banned. Working with Patrick regarding it.

Randomer Naught was a long time member from 2019, he should be reinstated.

He just didn't know it was against the rules. This can happen to anyone. @Patrick

 

[QCH-Logistics]

So the Randomer Naught account was my private account while this new one is for our business (messaged Patrick regarding using this account to offer shipping services). I just wanted to make it so I can do my private personal sales on my own account while having the shipping be done directly on that account for both simplicity and letting my team just log in and not see my messages to others regarding arista talk, or bgp... again it was my bad to mention using my businesses account for offering without checking with Patrick.

Maybe if I send him another Face Book Wedge 100 he will consider it /s

@QCH-Logistics Would like to get a update on this, has @Patrick given you your old account back?

 

[QCH-Logistics]

I am still waiting for Patrick to reply back. He's probably busy but he replied Friday afternoon. I'll touch base today with him to see if he's online and responding. I can still offer via dm's but can't post anything till given access and permission.

on a somewhat related note, I have been really happy with pirateship for my non-eBay shipping needs

Do they also do UPS if neither the sender nor the recipient are in the US?

 

[Radian]

I paid for a shipping label more than a week ago, but still havent go the label.... beware

 

[Rand__]

With QCH or pirateship?
I bought a label yesterday from @QCH-Logistics and it never arrived at my email address. After a couple of tries we sent directly to the sender and they received it just fine, so maybe your's is a similar problem?

 

[QCH-Logistics]

the account has been banned for about a week so getting a reply from us wont happen on Randomer Naught. dm me and let me know what the item was and I'll see to resend the label. I'd need the email as well so I can check our paypal invoices.

EDIT - Resolved issue after Radian reached out to me.

 

[QCH-Logistics]

Still no reply from Patrick. So likely gonna have to wait a longer time or just see what other Admins there are on the forums who can either approve or deny a request for a forum post from us or getting my account back

 

[Serverking]

Maybe its time to protest.

 

[QCH-Logistics]

Still no such luck. Been waiting on a reply back but still in the ether. But hey, if anyone wants those cheaper labels, let me know

Just want to throw out there I've shipped at least a couple dozen shipments through @Randomer Naught/@QCH-Logistics, and in the process, I have felt my share of suspicion, amazement, paranoia, and gratitude.

I have grilled this guy about the legitimacy of his FedEx account/discounts, and he's been nothing but patient, understanding, and helpful, whether it comes to my questioning the legitimacy of his discounted shipping rates or the finer details of shipping domestically and internationally. He's even extended his help when FedEx delivered a package to the wrong address. I have independently verified that he is using a single account number and the billing address matches publicly available information (see, there's that paranoia).

Thanks to his discounts, I've been able to ship decently-sized packages overnight for less than ground, even through Pirate Ship (not that FedEx overnight actually gets there overnight, but that's neither here nor there). Additionally, I've been able to save a near-fortune on shipments to me by providing labels to sellers, although not all sellers are comfortable with that arrangement.

Anyway, that's my 2¢. Many thanks, @QCH-Logistics!

Hoping till Patrick or others reply to my messages and pleades to reinstate my old account im kinda in the dark. I'll make a new personal account to offer shipping on but from a personal point of view so... hope that works.
