I need help from whoever has purchased a modmic

[UnicornStrength]

I bought a modmic  4.0 on saturday and I selected USPS first class mail shipping as the choice for shipping from the 3 that they listed. I visited USPS's official site and I came across and image describing what the first class mail is for. 

 

" Affordable mail service for standard-sized, single-piece envelopes weighing up to 3.5 oz, and large envelopes and small packages weighing up to 13 oz with delivery in 3 business days or less. From $0.49 at a Post Office™. "   I am now scared that I wont receive the item that I payed $58 for. Does this mean that they can only ship it to my mail? Because my mail is no way big enough to hold such a package, or would they deliver it to my door as they would if I bought it from Amazon? I realize this website isn't the best place to ask this question, but I always resort to LTT when I need help. I really hope that one of you have bought this modmic from their website and know what to do in this situation. Thank you for reading.

You're best off contacting ModMic's support. They know their product shipping and handling best.

If it fits in that specific package, it should fit in your mailbox. I had a SSD get delivered to my mailbox recently in the same packaging. If it fits it will be delivered, if not they will either take it back and message you or it will go to the USPS and you may have the option of picking it up there.

 

Though don't quote me on being able to pick it up there. @UnicornStrength

Thanks for the response both of you, I appreciate it. I am trying to find a way to contact Antlion Audio right now, I hope that I will be able to pick it up from USPS or something as well.

Usually if it doesnt fit and if they're not willing to leave it at the door they will give you a note asking to come pick it up. At least with my experience. I had zero issues receiving my Mod Mic when I had it.

Mine fit in the mailbox easy, it was pry 8"x3"x3".

 

If USPS has a package that won't fit in your mailbox, and no one is home to accept it, they will leave a slip you fill out either for re-delivery, leave it in a designated location, or pickup from a USPS location. They cannot leave packages on the steps/back porch/etc until you sign that slip saying you allow them to do so. They will try three deliveries IIRC until they return to sender, in which case Antlion would likely contact you, it is very unlikely they would just take your money and run.

Thanks for the help guys, I have searched through the internet for some unboxing videos and If they are as small as I see on youtube, for ex the video Linus made, then I should be completely fine. I also emailed Antlion Audio regarding this issue as well. Thanks again guys.

If a package is too large to be delivered, it's left at a post office for pick up. You're left a slip with the post office address, and hours.

At least that's the way it is here and I can't see why it'd be any different in the US.

 

A company, especially one as large as this, won't just take your money and then tell you to sod off.
