This was when we were living in an apartment that was numbered "1-2" in a building 4-3, with another 1-1 in the address.
As all those existed in the building as room numbers, and also existed in the area as buildings, AND as 番地... If the address was mangled, they had no clue which was which. I always got the things in the end - but it wasn`t exactly uncommon for them to try other addresses first.
