Sadie Member Registered: 10/08/04 Posts: 1274 Loc: MD	Dianne, They have a place in Huntsville Ala where my sister-in-law lives for the lost luggage and she has gone over there to purchase some items. Good buys she said . Chatty , We had a mailman who did same thing here years ago and at times I was not getting all my mail . He just would not deliver on a Saturday to us. When they investigated here they found a lot of mail he had opened and dumped in the woods . They he was stealing a lot of stuff off the trucks and mail. I hope he does go down good . I heard this mailman here got big time in jail. [ January 23, 2006, 10:20 PM: Message edited by: Renee ]

browser57 Member Registered: 06/07/05 Posts: 242 Loc: Michigan	When I lived in TN, our newcomer's group visited the unclaimed baggage place in Alabama. It was quite the place. It was shortly after 9/11 and there were bins on top of bins of nail clippers and nail files. I wondered who the heck would buy someone else's nail clippers???? But, you'd be amazed at what gets left behind. Tons of paperback books - most like new. Lots of clothes and suprizingly, lots of small electrics. A lot of 'formal' wear, also. It's one of those places that you have to visit on a frequent basis. I imagine 'the good stuff' doesn't last long. I did buy a few books - it took hours to go through the whole place.

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I live right outside of Huntsville and I don't know about this place. What's the name of it? I've been here over 30 years. The one in Scottsboro, AL is called UNCLAIMED BAGGAGE and it USE to be a good place to shop. Now its junk and the people who own it buy from everybody, not just unclaimed baggage. They buy leftovers from places like Penny's, Speigel's, etc...You are so right though about the books. You can get some great buys on them. I live about an hour from there. JJ

They use to buy unclained luggage , but now I guess it has changed . I forgot you live near my sister-in-law and if all goes well we will be there this summer .

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Another boomer meeting? The only thing that happened to us concerning mail was when soemone in the post office stole our new credit card. I received a payment with over a thousnad dollars that I hadn't charged. When I called the bank, they asked if I'd received my new credit card. I hadn't. They shared that soemone in the Baltimore postal service had been stealing them before they got delivered. I didn't pay a cent. That's why the interst rates are so high.
