ALWAYS get your packages scanned in. If you go to paypal with info saying electronic info received, they can say it was never shipped, and on top of that, a USPS rep mentioned to me that things can possibly not be covered by warranty until scanned in.

Since then, I always take it to an actual rep and get it scanned.
