So I go to the post office today to ship out a decant for a trade with a member here and I go thru all the standard crap: "anything fragile?" Yes. "anything perishable?" No. "anything liquid?" Yes. "what kind of liquid?" Cologne.
Bells & whistles go off...."oh i'm sorry sir, it's USPS policy that we cannot ship cologne. You must go to the DOT office and get a special mailer and ship that way. Cologne is flammable under pressure, so we cannot ship it."
I said "so I must go to UPS and ship it ground?" She says "oh no sir, they won't do that, it has to be a special DOT transfer." I said "so wait a sec, you're telling me that UPS will ship my firearms and ammunition ground, but they won't ship cologne?" She said "that's right sir..Government policy."
I was furious. So did she have her head in her *** or is this now a new policy? I get cologne shipped all the time Priority mail! All i'm gonna do is go to the next office and not declare a liquid.
Any of you guys have this issue?!
