So I’ve noticed something about voting:

I have 3 people in my house..me, my sister and her hubby.? ?But, because we’re all on the same internet connection, there can only be ONE VOTE PER HOUSEHOLD each day.? ?Each one of us can’t cast a vote, despite the fact that we have our own computers and of course, unique IP addresses.? ?Just an FYI in case anyone is running into the same thing – I realize we have a unique situation here, but I doubt we’re the only ones :)? ?:laugh:

:ohmy:  I thought you could only vote if you were a member…  So wouldn’t it be one vote per day per PHog account?

Where else can I go so far off topic on threads, I mean add constructive posts to threads  :cheer:

Psst, Leatherz, I am guilty of this too…  I don’t think it’s wrong, so long as what you have to say is interesting!

Sooo…  Where’s the PHog cake?  smt 😉

Those chat parties at noon EST on Sunday always seemed to do all right, attendance-wise.

So looking forward to voting (and seeing who everyone else votes for!)  So many of the gals nominated have been a big help to me, personally, whether through advice, information, support, or just sharing a laugh!

I can’t wait!  smt

I actually decided to go through with it for this business when a customer sent me a check made out to “Cherie” – which I took to the bank and was told couldn’t be deposited, even though they all have known me for donkey’s years.[/color][/size]

When I was first starting out (like, four months ago, LOL) I took a money order to the teller at the bank; it was made out to my real first name and the initial of my last name.  The teller wouldn’t honour it, since it wasn’t my whole real name.  :angry:  When I basically told her, “for fuck’s sake, the m/o is obviously for me, how do I cash it?” she recommended I deposit it through the bank machine where she wouldn’t see the name.  [sheepish look]  That’s what I’ve done ever since…  It has worked fine.  Honestly, once the cheque/money order gets to the processing stage I don’t think the handlers inspect too vigorously…  Unless someone complains, I guess they assume that you are entitled to the funds if you’re in possession of the cheque/money order.  (I was going to use the word “instrument” — as in “financial instrument — but then decided this thread didn’t need a plethora of penis/dildo jokes…  Or does it?  :cheer:)

Cherie!  It’s not nice to scare us like that!  :angry:

Phew!  I am glad your knickers will still be around. Would have been a great loss to the community if you stopped offering them.  smt

Welcome Janie!  🙂

I get payments mailed to my PO box with the name “Ms. Karen” or “Allura’s Closet” (Ebanned ID) and there have never been problems.  The one time the postie gave me a funny look I told him I sold on eBay (implying that Allura’s Closet was an eBay name/store.)

With no return address and an undeliverable package, I assume the the post office just chucks it. 

It is always conceivable that a buyer could “turn you in” (what happened in that U.S. case), and you could be identified with your PO box address, but many buyers would not risk exposing themselves as the complainant.  (In any case, I don’t send special chocolate or lemonade in the mail…  Used panties are not as serious an issue, I would think.)

My $0.02!

[darkhairedkaren]

Welcome!  🙂

In the past I have gone so far as to use fake addresses as return addresses when shipping internationally so the package would not look suspicious.  (“Fake” as in I’d pick a random apartment building, use a fake name, and forget to put the apartment number).  I’ve also shipped with no return address with regards to sensitive items.

Some items you want to have your return address on, since they are a bit too costly to lose (e.g. expensive or rare lingerie pieces).  Unless the package contains something that is a big no-no I will put the return address on; it’s nice to know what happened to a package if it doesn’t arrive, and I don’t worry too much about getting in trouble for plain dirty panties.  (I don’t mail pee or shit in the mail.)

Hope this helps!

Dark Haired Karen  🙂
