Comments and Questions

I returned a package meant for Little Coral, but I mailed it to the Beijing Post Office instead. The package contains 2 white skating dresses that cost a lot of money. I sent them USPS, Tracking number CO492534512US. Please give them to Little Coral or send them back to me at Pam Pletcher
