I have waited over an hour and i have paid over 15 gold for these items so i would REALLY not appreciate them going "missing"

It has been 2 hours now, coming up to 3. So where are they?

Thanks

    Takes 1 hour for mail delivery when there is an item in it. I hope you copy and pasted the name and not given someone some free stuffs.

    I tested it.. I tried my other name using alternate spelling, tried sending something to it, says it doesn't exist.

    Yet when i try to create that name it says it does.

    PWI... My stuff back *smiles briefly* NOW

    Well looks like you need to fill out a ticket, and they will promptly check your logs 1 month after complaining and opening multiple tickets b:chuckle

    Would reiterate what others have said regarding the exact spelling of the name (case sensitive) being used.

    You could try sending a ticket regarding this matter to Support but unsure what your chances would be of recovering the items if indeed it was sent to the wrong character.

    Regards.

    Well, in my experience of the mailing system, if you mail an item to a character using their exact name (case sensitive), the item reaches them in the alloted time.

    With the information you have provided, if your character has not received said items after the alloted time has past, what other possibilities are there?

    As the name has to be written perfectly or else it is bye bye items. They are not sent back if the recipient is not found.
    I wonder how people with characters who have fancy names (with doodles or an insane number of Xs in it) or their friends/acquaintances manage with that.

    It's quite a sad thing, really.

    Besides this annoying system requirement, it never failed on me. I sent countless items to my alts (before I bought an account stash stone) and I always received them successfully after.

    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.

    i quit mailing my alts stuff when the 500 coin/mail fee got to be too annoying. then having them "meet up" to drop - relog - pickup quickly became even more annoying. the account stash stone i bought just yesterday made itself worthwhile instantly.

    but yes, misspell a name in sending mail and the best you can hope for is the mail doesn't go. (i think that's what happens if the name you typed just doesn't exist.) more likely, given the name crowding in this game, you give some stranger a freebie.

    i don't know if it's possible to copy and paste player names in-game. if it is, how do i do it?

    All I would say is that none of us here are trying to propose excuses.

    We are just suggesting as to what might have happened.

    In any event, contact support in order to try to recover your items.

    I got 125,000,000 in the mail a few weeks ago from someone I've never met. S/he has heretofore not responded to my mails... I am not really sure how that came about, but my cube neck and lunar rings have Taese to thank for that. b:pleased

    For your information from another post I dug up regarding a customer service phone number:
    There is no Customer Service phone number, there is only a billing line strictly for billing-related issues. You can find the phone number on any of your payment receipts.

    For any non-billing issues, please use the standard Ticketing system:

    If you get anywhere, kudos to you.

    Also further reading into the OP's mind reveals that he be a prepubescent (or at least has the mind of one) human male child with a flawed sense of his own intelligence.
