Prof, I'd love to say sorry (and I am) but it was totally out of my control, you saw the postmark date.

What on earth would you be sorry for? I doubted it getting here within the month, never mind 2 weeks. Said as much when I bought them. Wasn't worried for a minute. I just love having something to tease you with.

Besides, I could have had them within 2 days if I'd been willing to cop the extra. But the butthole reaming that UPS gives for crossing the border ($30 brokerage fee) was a little beyond my budget.

$30? EEK! That's outrageous!
I personally can't wait until this ebay express thing gets ramped up! It hopefully will be kind to the ebay storefront owners if it is successful.

Tell me about it. 4.99 plastic welding rods from Harbour Freight, about another $5 shipping. $2 duty and $30 because HF won't ship anything outside of UPS.

I just used eBay to buy a turntable preamp. My parents' turntable isn't working right anymore, so I got a new one for my mom's birthday (the 7th). Only problem is, the receiver doesn't have a phone input. The old turntable had a built-in preamp and this new one doesn't. RadioShack has a preamp that can be ordered but it uses a 9V battery, while the one I have coming to me off eBay plugs into the wall.

I'm glad you got them safely! :D
My list was for my purchases. I had a good month so listing my sales would be longer, mainly clothing though.

Okay. I was going to send them when I received your check but if there is going to be some concern I could mail them early.

You're the best ebayer ever :D

I've never bought anything else on ebay but I'm sure from now on everyone will pale in comparison to you :D

I found my kittie close to death in the bathroom this morning and had to take him in, and now he's gone. :(

I only had him a couple years, and he hated me, but it's a shock and really really sad.
