I'm curious if anyone was able to grab one of these, as I heard a few posted last week? I've also read that the pay was cut in half, so hoping thats not true and some sort of misunderstanding!

Shipping shops? Mind posting the details of the shop? I've run into a few of these in the past and they turned out to be a scam... Just curious as to the details because I've never seen where a company would legitimately ask you to ship something.

The shops have been around for over 20 years. Its shipping a package via the largest organization in the country that mails letters and ships packages, and then reporting on the experience. The jobs were with an MSC on the Shopmetrics platform, and were supposedly moved to iSS with a new MSC. Not a scam at all, and one of the most long-running, popular shops in the business.

Interesting... if I saw one, I'd probably go for it if it was a real thing. I'm on four different platforms, but haven't seen one of those yet on any of them.

I'm doing 4 of these currently. It takes some time to complete. I started the 13th and completed 1 of them yesterday. Mailed returns for 2 yesterday. And will mail one more today. Just waiting on refunds.

Thats a different project you are describing, the e-commerce shops. The shipping shop I was referring to was just literally shipping a package to someone using USPS. They were great. The e-commerce shops I have found to be a pain in the neck, since the MSC took so long in between steps and the 4 times back and forth was kind of silly! Oh well.

This drives me nuts being a long time mystery shopper. New company gets mystery shopping jobs and they drop the pay. Good luck getting anyone to complete some of the remote locations.

I did two of the USPS shops following the gidelines. First shop got accompaniment badges and all. When submitted the second shop exactly the same as the first one I got declined and then they re-posted the shop with new guidelines. Lost my time and gas because the second one was out of town. Emailed the ISS contact and she’s dodging me. No replies. Totally disappointed.

I have been doing post office shops for the last 3-4 years and have enjoy doing them, especially when travelling. When they were moved to this company, it took me 4-5 months to find them. I had no idea they were moved. My question is...I can see a shop in a certain city and it has the next 3 days available, but when I click on it it will says it has been completed by another shopper and I have to wait 18 days. Why do they still show up or why are the dates not changed? Does anyone know? I don't like to request until I know for sure I'll be in that area and it's frustrating to click it only to discover I can't do. Just looking for a suggestion.
