Of couse I do not mind shipping sooner, but I am just interested in the workings of the company, do they write up what you can communicate to us, do you get some facts and are expected to write with limited knowledge, or is it even a PR plot to say “look how fast we are”...:)

Nope. I’ve written every word (minus the S@H product descriptions) you’ve seen me post on LUGNET for my 4+ years I’ve been posting.

I apologize for any misunderstanding. I just meant they are on their way to your house, (shipping, unpacking, customs, etc.), not that they were at the moment of writing on a ship in the ocean. My mistake in communication.

Boy, I’m really in the hot seat these days...even the good news gets me in trouble!

Yup! I was thinking when I read your post of a big Maersk blue ship with Maersk blue containers carrying Maersk blue ships with white and grey containers, when I was made rudely aware that they are already in a plain brown boxes in nasty brown UPS trucks!!

Of course this is good news!!

Thanks,

Paul

Nah. You’re not in trouble for this. I damn near jumped out of my skin with excitement when I got my tracking numbers this morning. Besides, I think Paul is just trying to get information from you. At least Christian hasn’t jumped in on this part of the thread. Then you’d be on the hot seat (big grin). Personally I think you have a lot of very excited people over this entire deal. And since my sets should be here on a Friday, I’ll crack the case...and a case of beer, and build and drink in your honor. I’d send you one, but the ATF would probably arrest me and confiscate my ships.....

Build on.
