Made a one character typo in my shipping address for a windshield I bought from ebay. I check tracking info since it should have delivered yesterday afternoon.. of course they don't update the site until the evening. So, no package when I get home from work. I then proceed to check the tracking info... "Undeliverable... sending back to sender." Dangit! Ok, I'll call USPS.. wait, it's too late, they're closed. I'll just call first thing in the morning, no problem. No no.. too late, they already started sending it back. Nothing I can do.
I emailed the guy I bought it from and he almost immediately sent me a reply that he'll contact me when it gets it back. Likely I'll repay shipping costs, but it's better than buying a new windshield! Here's hoping I can type this time.
I feel very lucky that the guy I bought it from seems like a stand-up guy that won't screw me. I'm mostly irritated that USPS didn't give me a chance to correct it and instead returned an expensive item to someone. So I very easily could have been out the cost.
I know it's my fault for not triple checking my address, but come on...
