Has anyone had success with general delivery to a post office?
I move around a lot and rely on Amazon’s pickup network. The times I’ve tried to have a place do general delivery they’ve canceled my order.
I've used it with success, but you have to be specific with the addressing of your package (mainly just the "General Delivery" in the second address line). Details here.
I mean - I’ve gotten emails from the companies saying “we don’t do general deliveries”.
I don’t know if they see it as high risk or fraudulent or what.
