Made in Canada conundrum

Polk, what a laugh I had reading your dribble...

This guy would be the perfect candidate for a Rick Mercer interview.
For those here that know who Rick Mercer is, just imagine.... Now that would be hilarious.

On a different note.
Springbok, two month's sitting in customs, I would be asking FedEx for answers maybe they screwed up, there's no way you should of payed any other cost's other then shipping.
U.S. and Canadian Customs are set up at these couriers facilities.The service you usually get from couriers is a few steps up from government postal workers.

Back in the mid 1980s through the 1990s I collected 1950's and earlier German table top radios, primarily Saba and Telefunken.
I bought direct from sources in Germany and the Netherlands.

I had maybe 5 radios out of dozens that I purchased in all those years opened for inspection by Canadian Customs.

Shipped by air then delivered to my door step usually took under 10 day's.
The radios that were flagged for inspection, all from the Netherlands BTW, this added 3 to 8 days to the overall time they took to reach me. Upon arrival a customs notice was included stating my parcel was opened for inspection.

Since then I have shipped components back to the U.S. for factory upgrades including purchases of dozens of other items from the U.S. and elsewhere that were delivered promptly with zero problems, most recent was a 40 pound Accuphase tuner from New Jersey.

I'm not suggesting this two month wait didn't happen to you, anything can happen, however it is extreme....

Ar this point, we don't know what actually happened. This being said, incompetency can be found everywhere, so it would be no surprise in the case of a courier company. But to stay on the sunny side, let's chalk it up to human error... and try to find where the error occured and fix it.

Stiltskin, it's nice to know that at least some people realize that this forum is a joke. I'm still laughing at some of the Irate e-mail I've received. I hope that my buyer enjoys the tonearm for years to come. I hate to see a person have to wait so long to receive an item they've paid for. I can't wait for hockey season to start. In Nigeria! Good luck to all. Go Red Wings

Polk432, it's you who is trying to turn this forum into a joke by injecting unfounded comments... such as in your last post. Unfortunately for you, if you left the forum alone, you would no longer have the pleasure of making it your personal joke.

infotrad, don't slip on a hackey puck!
