Do you know of a minifigure that has black or dark grey arms with chain mail
/ scale mail printed arms?

Likely a superhero figure or Ninjago.

Thanks!

As well as chain mail, if you are looking for similar designs it is also worth
searching scale mail and plate mail as these can be very similar. And due to
the new BF legs, chainmail as one word too.

Hopefully you also have notified local police and the USPS. Porch Pirates unfortunately
have learned that there's a lot of Ring doorbells out there, and cameras....if
your packages are going missing from a mailbox, my bet is your neighbors also
are missing / losing stuff, and maybe they have camera footage or filed complaints
as well.

I guess you can't just reship a new order, and maybe give the buyer a courtesy
coupon or something, and hope down the line some thief is caught with a bunch
of Legos?

What's somewhat puzzling to me is taking a package from a porch is pretty
much everywhere petty theft, but taking something out of a mailbox is a federal
level offense

Imagine 2 guys in federal prison. One says "how much time are you doing?" answer:
"10 years". first guy "so am I...I assaulted a federal agent...what did you do?"
other guy: "stole some Legos from a mailbox"

One customer in-particular is being very belligerent about not receiving his

I will have taken a big hit to my bottom line by the theft of those 7 orders,
and through no fault of my own, should I have to be the brunt of negative feedback?
He's already filing for a refund through PayPal, which is his right. What
are my options in this case?

I'm certainly not doing anymore business through my residential mailbox!!
I'll drive out of my way to go to the PO from now on!

They don't know if the packages were stolen, just that they haven't been
scanned.

It could just be a USPS delay.

If you have more than 5 outgoing packages, the mail carrier is not supposed to
do an acceptance scan. 5 is the most they will scan, and none get scanned if
you have more than 5. Once they get them back to the post office, they will not
be scanned there either. They should begin appearing on tracking once they pass
thru an NDC sorter.

You have two options, one is to generate all your postage using PayPal Multi-Order
Shipping, and generate a SCAN form. The mail carrier will scan the SCAN form,
and then click YES, the number of packages is correct. Doing the SCAN form indirectly
causes all the packages to be acceptance scanned. The other option is to take
them to the post office, and ask a retail counter clerk to do a 'Pre-Paid
Acceptance Scan'.
