          Comments about Mail Sign:

          It's a great idea and I wish I could use it, but it can't be attached to my type of mailbox, which is the large Rubbermaid one that does not have the metal opening brackets. It is not a unique or custom-made mailbox; it is carried by all the major hardware stores. The only way to attach this signal balI would be to drill holes in the top of my mailbox, and that wouldn't guarantee that the pop-up would work properly -- and then I'd be stuck with holes in my mailbox. The description should carry a warning that the mailbox must have a metal opener bracket. Bummer. I was looking forward to not hiking to check if the mail had come.

              I really like the Mail Sign. Our mailbox at work is about 0.1 of a mile from our office and not in a direct line from the office and now we can tell when the mail has come when we get about halfway to the box. No more walks to the box only to see the flag up when we get within arm's length of the box.

                Comments about Mail Sign:

                A couple of our neighbors had this device on the mailbox. I wanted one but couldn't find it at any of the hardware stores or stores I checked. I was glad to see it advertised in your catalogue. It has saved me lots of steps to the mailbox when the mail has not arrived. I can easily see the ball (which I painted red) from my kitchen window. This is a simple gadget, but a real help for me.

                                I wanted the earlier model but this one works better and will probably last longer because it doesn't have hinge to get rusty.

                                  come than walking down to the mailbox every time.
