I don't know if they were 111635, but I sure remember finding a lot of "precious" Fingerhut genuine gold colored free prize jewlery in the package cars.

I was being sarcastic and trying to say something nice about a Bcer that I truly don't respect.

Remember when you could tell what part of the country a shipper was from by their shipper number. It went from lowest to highest. east to west. Not any more with all these x's, e's etc.

Deplorable.
There's an 059999 on a route that I know. They've been a pickup for a VERY long time.

I'm pretty sure their shipper # was 170-513 & the return address was 11 McLeland Dr St Cloud , Mn..........only reason I remember it was because I delivered in Brooklyn in the early 90's & 75% of them went to the 7day room.

Not to be a fun hater, but I am sure UPS is appreciating the publishing of UPS Shipper Numbers when fraud has become a huge issue.
