I sent out six books today, all to the same person.  I used delivery confirmation for the package but on my books mailed list it only says that one book has the quick credit.  This is the first time that I have ever used delivery confirmation before so what I am wondering is if the package goes lost will I get all six credits or will I only get one credit?  Thank you.

you will get 6 credits but you may have to wait until they are received by the person to get them (assuming it was 6 orders).

there is a bulk option but I don't use DC or printable postage to know how it works.

It sounds like the person who ordered from you did not do a bulk order.  There is nothing you can do on your end about that- they have to be put on a bulk wrapper when they are ordered.  I have had two orders like that in the past week myself, and it is a bit frustrating- I wish there was a way for the sender to combine orders on one wrapper.  If you are negotiating a deal with someone in the future, ask them to make sure that they place the bulk order, rather than ordering each book separately.  This is done by requesting one book, then clicking the "Order More from Member" button and then adding the rest.

And yes, unfortunately if the package goes lost, you will lose the credits for the other book- the only one that is guaranteed is the quick credit.

They did do a bulk order so I think that the link Liese gave me will help.  Thanks.
