The Battery Hazard

This is strange.

Did you know that you can't send batteries in the post?











What a headache.

Same thing happened to me when I bought a defective replacement battery for my Powerbook in the States. When trying to send it back to the US, the post office sent it to the return address by mistake. The entire staff of my local post office all bowed in apology when I went round to sort it out. Of course they offered to resend it, but when they asked was it was, I was told they CAN'T ship it. Ditto for FedEx and UPS. Solution: write "computer parts" on the description instead of battery! Stick a needle in my eye...

I've heard of that solution.They got me to write "no battery", but if they want to send it back they will. Bit of hit and miss by the sound of things.
