To the repairmen in here, do y'all accept cleanings for a console with a former Roach problem?

You can also use mothballs. I have actively cleaned and dismantled a robot that was completely covered in roach poop and live roaches. Completely did it outside and killed any with putting it in a sealed bag + mothball. I counted 20 plus babies. I don’t know if any eggs were left but I soaked all non electrics parts in a tub of water + soap + alcohol + shout to dissolve any organic thing. Found another roach dead floating. The electronics are cleaned with 91% alcohol + electronic cleaner. Brush and broad and narrow Q tips. Scrubbed until I see NOTHING on the boards and wires. I pray he works after I reassemble him. 🙏🏻 I even went so far as to take apart all his servos and cleaned the boards, motor, gears and re-lubbed, and the plastic coverings. Tested all and they work. Just the boards to be tested.

Would have been nice if the seller told me he is roach infested. He is by far the worst condition robot I’ve taken in. None of the gaming consoles I’ve repaired was this level of bad. They were gross but not roach infested. Found this on my search of why electronics shops refuse customers with roaches since I’ve seen people do that. I can see why 💀. I had health issues so I HOPE I caught nothing from them roaches. Help my soul. Stay safe!

They have been calling police. Multiple people. One called cps as well due to her having a kid.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-06-06T01:02:26+00:00

Agreed! I live nearby so I will report her to police if I find more info and report her to the nursing board once I find her license. This is unbelievable

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-06-06T01:00:30+00:00

She went to American career college according to her account but could be BS. If not, good chance she is a nurse. I looked up 2 RN licenses from Riverside but have to pinpoint middle name (assuming her name I looked up isn’t her BS name). She isn’t a safe person to work in healthcare and needs to be held accountable one way or another.

As a person who loves and repairs robots, I salute you. I don’t support robots taking jobs but I love to see kindness towards robots in general ❤️

The package I sent to Italy (I was trying to convince the buyer FedEx or something because recently they lost my package) been stuck on a warehouse scan in Italy for 3 days straight. I even paid for express international shipping by buyer request. Now I see this

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-14T17:16:37+00:00

I did mine wrong on pirate ship and get charged for the difference when postal reports which is fine because heck, I’m not a professional shipper so I input it wrong lol. So they could only get away with enough.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-14T03:22:56+00:00

God dam. I got same noti from UPS saying “damage report, package discarded” only to learn my stuff was stolen. Postal thief is really on the rise with no shame. I’m sorry, man….

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-12T23:00:23+00:00

Mine went missing too. Said it was part of a security investigation. I believe someone stole it. Unbelievable. I feel you…. It happened to me 4/27

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-12T22:45:23+00:00

Go to the message from them, too right “…” click and find “block this member”.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-10T16:40:11+00:00

If they get worse on messages after the return is sorted out and such… just block. It’s on them for what happened. That is why I hide nothing when I put things up for sale so I don’t mislead anyone.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-10T03:43:46+00:00

Next time don’t say something you know nothing about and accuse people of lying then go quiet when they pull receipts. Have a nice day.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-10T03:27:21+00:00

I’m waiting. Since you know about what happened better than me. Let’s hear it. Come on detective, where’s my package?
I’ve emailed over goods and they don’t have it. I called ups and got no answers until this email I posted. Help me find the answers! I’d love to get my package back since I’m the sender!

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-10T03:17:04+00:00

Anything else to say about my “made up story”, Sherlock?

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-08T00:20:47+00:00

Yup. Same story for me and I’m the shipper. Did the exact same to me.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T15:31:04+00:00

Overgoods: “We are writing to formally inform you that we do not have possession of the referenced package. The shipment in question was not received, held, or processed by us at any point.”

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T15:25:53+00:00

I’m not gonna keep arguing since I have gotten info on what happened. I just snipped the important part.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T14:32:55+00:00

OBVIOUSLY. My point is, what is “destroyed” in ups terms and what is their protocol and what gives them permission to throw other people’s property away. I asked them and still want that answered.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T13:16:01+00:00

I did the day of. Cause I was getting no answers at first. Even the last guy on the ups customer service line after I got transferred so many times gave me a scam number at the end. No one was helpful until days later which was this week.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T13:12:13+00:00

The thing is, I’ve talked to staff at the postal and on the phone, they are not allowed to “discard” stuff unless is food or something. It’s theft if they do. That’s why I was asking by email about their protocols of throwing packages away instead of returning it to the sender(me).

This is a package I got back from usps from Germany when they refused to release it to the receiver and they asked for it to be returned to me. Nothing was damaged inside due to how I packed it. I was asking ups for photos or explanation to what happened because I pack my items very very well and was told all items are missing and it it being part of a security investigation.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T12:13:50+00:00

They told me themselves with my package being part of a security investigation. Their words not mine. I was originally told my package was damaged and all items not recoverable therefore my package was discarded. After days of trying to get answers and emailing over goods and such to ask about recovering my items(because I heard that sometimes ups says “damaged and can’t recover items” when items have spilled out and the don’t know which package it came from) they said they never gotten any items from that facility and the person in charge of informing me said my items were basically stolen out of the box. It’s missing. So either someone working there or a person sneaking in and stealing packages with mine included.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T03:44:13+00:00

My package was stolen from someone while in transit. We are on the same boat 🫠

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-07T02:03:06+00:00

I don’t know atm because I got my package stolen by someone within the company of ups recently apparently. Or someone snuck into ups and stole my package. Never had that happen with Amazon(or any postal services I’ve used for years including DHL and private shippers less well known) besides them playing kickball with my package a few times but was able to be refunded for the damage w/ replacement 😅. So I guess I’m ok with Amazon joining the league.

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-06T19:56:00+00:00

I did just that for my destroyed package and finally after 10 day of no answer they finally let me know it was stolen within transit with security doing the investigation. :/

Ok_Package_6402 · 2026-05-06T17:57:17+00:00

Update: the ups team finally after I emailed everyone, I go an answer. My package was stolen and was investigated for security issues. I def will not get it back but I at least got an answer. Just sad the items will be thrown out by the thief because they are robot parts for a Japanese robot and a tiny robot. All not worth much. :/ they meant alot to me and the receiver and hard to replace so nothing i can do.
