Sent to wrong address

Unread post by Gak242 »

Sent a LOR Two 8x10's and a SASE to an address that's no longer current. The old address I sent it to was about 8 months old. What are the odds it gets forwarded, RTS, or lost forever? I got notification that it was delivered successfully yesterday to the old address.. Guess we'll see in the long run, but was just looking for feedback while I wait. Thanks.

No idea, sorry. I've seen this question come up before and no one usually has any useful answers. Too many unknown factors.

If you require the return of your photo's, perhaps try writing to the same address asking for them back.

If the company has filed a change of address with the Post Office, they forward for a year, then RTS.

There are a lot of unknowns but if the haven't filed a change of address it hopefully will come back to you.

It's all a waiting game. :( I have had RTS take forever to get back!

I'm new, so in a rush to get started I sent three different requests away without checking to see if the addresses were up to date. I consider myself lucky in that only one of the three are now under a new address.

I'll just wait the normal time - plus a bit extra since it may have been forwarded -for them that I see it takes for other people getting back from em and then if after that, I'll write to the new addy. Live and learn.

*****UPDATE*****

I received my SASE with Photos signed and extras! Awesome turn around time!
Who knows if it was forwarded to the right address and then returned or what.
Just happy to receive it!! YAYYYYYYYY!
