Bad dealings on this forum ?

I just wanted to add that the PO has been slow lately. I am based in MN and sent a package to Chicago, well after two weeks and a vacation in Californis the package arrived. How it went to California is anyones guess but certainly slowed down the package.

I once had a certified letter headed to LA that first disappeared off tracking for a month and then pinged back and forth between an LA postal facility and one in West Sacramento multiple times before it finally got delivered in LA - to the wrong address. Fortunately the recipient put it back in the mail and about two months after mailing, it arrived.

Happy to hear things are working out. I normally wouldn't comment on this topic but just felt the need. I agree that communication is key and even though it is something that can only take a few minutes, life can get pretty busy and it's easy to lose track of time. It being the 21st century and everyone wants everything quick, quick, fast, fast. I do understand the reasons but sometimes you just have to take a deep breath, relax, and be happy that you were able to purchase something and that you will receive it. For me, something can take weeks to get to me and as long as it's not lost in the mail, i'm fine with it. My only issue is if something is lost. Otherwise I'm just happy I could make a purchase. For many of us, this is just a hobby and not a full time job. There's not always enough hours in the day to make everyone happy. Let's try to keep this hobby fun, happy, enjoyable, and relaxing.

Happy collecting everyone!!!

I am old enough to remember when you would purchase something and mail was involved you were asked to allow 4-6 weeks for delivery!!

Lol.....sounds like shipping between the US and Canada. I don't even give it a thought about delivery times until atleast 4 weeks have passed. I am a very patient person and don't raise any stink about shipping times unless I pay the big bucks for the service and expect something like guaranteed 5 days delivery.

Wonder if this happened to you, if your attitude would be so saccharine. Reading your post, my diabetes started acting up. Oh golly, gee willickers, Auntie Em!
