Greetings fellow elecrafters,
Some may now say "oh no, not another one", but others expressed they want
to keep track of the progress in delivery of the desired goodies.
Yesterday the brown stork made a delivery in the deep south (although
highest part) of the Netherlands. We all know, storks like high nesting
places. After having payed the ransom (sales-tax) of 597 USD, on top of
the 171 USD his boss allready demanded (shipping), the man in brown was
willing to part from the famous big brown box. A big yellow sticker said
COD, the
kidnappers were serious and didn't want the police involved. Now baby
00201 is rescued and ready to grow up.
Seriously now, for the statistics:
- order placed on may 3rd (confirmation on may 4th)
- fully loaded K3/100 kit (with 50% deposit)
- invoice number 47542
- "will be send soon"-notice on friday january 4th
- left Aptos on tuesday january 8th (UPS Express)
- via Cologne Germany (january 9th) to the Netherlands
- no retention by dutch customs
- first delivery attempt thursday january 10th (I wasn't home)
- succesfull delivery on friday january 11th
Back to the boxes.
73 de PE8E, Ron
Vaals - Netherlands
