If she's swiping mail in an apartment complex, maybe you should have your co-worker (or you) ask the apartment management about it - you may be onto something much larger than your battery, given the rise in identity theft and such lately.
Does the complex have mailboxes in a central location or is it delivered to the door? Maybe a sting operation is forthcoming ?

it might be put in her box and she is just one of those jerks that keeps the mail that is suppose to go to others.. I live in a 3 unit building and get any mail that shows up without a apartment number on the letter or with a number over 3.. there it is easy to know who they are for since only 2 other ppl living there so i put it where it goes..
I'll talk to my coworker about calling the inspectors. I'm about to just place another order with shawn (got my tax refund check finally) so thats some money towards it. Thanks for the advice guys.
I don't know what the federal laws are exactly regarding the USPS, but I do recall seeing on a news show several years ago that a "law" had been passed that makes it legal to keep anything that is delivered to your house, by the USPS, regardless of who it is addressed to or if it's even the correct address. I believe it was one of the morning news programs. And they were talking about it because so many people were complaining around Xmas time, and missing packages with expensive gifts, etc., that went to the wrong addresses. And unfortunately, according to this new "law" at that time, anyone who received it from a postal worker could keep it. I know that doesn't really cheer you up. I would personally write it off. I don't think I'd want it back if shes already opened it anyway. And she wouldn't want to keep it if she didn't already know what's in it. Hard lesson learned though. I would think the coworker would offer to pay you for it, if she/he was being very friendly.
JMO.

According to the original post, she didn't "swipe" mail, it was delivered to her address.
yeah, I've just taken it as a loss, my coworker isn't as willing to accept it, but I'm not going to push it much more. Hopefully at somepoint it will turn up in my hands.
Yes please do that and have it taped and place on this site so we can all cheer you on while routing her
Hey if you tape it and charge a buck per view we can more than get the ops money back
and we can sell
Seriously the lesson to be learned is to not order if you not going to be around to recieve it and dont have your stuff sent to anyone elses house.

it was my fault for not double checking the apartment number, but yeah expensive lesson learned, at least it wasn't worse. Hopefully some one learns from my mistake
Go knock on her door and have it out with her, what is there to lose at this point?
If I were next door I think some loud music daily would adjust her attitude, may I suggest Metallica.
That might work, I did that to a buddist next door that would start chanting at 6am. I placed my speakers on the wall and cranked up Hot rails to Hell by BOC no more chanting after that.
Hey just keep playing Panama over and over and over again like mimi did on that Drew Carey show.
Hmmm - have you tried ringing her doorbell and beating her senseless?
WITCH!!!!
JK - I dont advocate violence but some people do need a good one.

mail out a dog turd to her address with someone elses name on it.. maybe she will learn then..
lol this one is not advisable.. but if i opened a box with a fake explosive in it I would not be opening others packages again..

lol.. i have a better one.. mail some illegal product and leave a tip about the package.. if they sign for it.. they go down..
But isn't opening mail addressed to someone else a Federal offense? It's one thing if something is addressed to you that you didn't order, but if it's addressed to someone else? That would mean if you received someone else's income tax refund you could keep it - NOT.
Yes it is a federal offense.. the thing is proving that it happened.. when i open my fiances mail I am making a federal offense.
