Not that this will make you feel any better, but, we are experiencing the same problem with Australia Post.... they've sent out official communications openly stating that mail volume has increased to levels that they are unable to cope with.

Hi terriblefire,
Had a little terrible fire of my own today,early this morning the old ticker when out of rhythm was beating around 210 beats per minute, had to go to the local hospital and they couldn't bring it down, they end up kick-starting it with 200 joules a couple of times which was performed under instruct via video chat with a Carto doctor in Brisbane that brought it back to the correct rhythm, sort of like a reboot I guess. Then I scored a free ride in the rescue helo to a major hospital, highlight of the day. I can laugh about it now but it was a little concerning this morning. All good now, but they will not discharge me for a few days yet, never had a sickness in my life and just out of the blue bang you just never now.

The reason for the post is, if you send out pms over the weekend I will probably not respond until around Tuesday next week, depends when I can get to a terminal in the hospital, will send the payment as soon as I can should be discharged on Tues hopefully.

Sorry if it is off topic and I was going to send it as a PM, but I thought you would rather a post in the thread rather than a PM. Also a good yarn so I thought I would spin it.

PMs sent to everyone who paid a deposit. I'll get them posted out today if payments come in.

Calm down on PMing me.. i'll get to you soon guys. I just need to follow a process to make sure everyone gets theirs. Probably going to do 4-5 at a time then post them then do the next 4-5 in the list.

Slight hitch. Ran out of anti static bags. More ordered.

I suppose I should explain my process to you guys so you're not totally confused how i'm doing this.

Basically i package up 3-4 orders and send out PMs.. When i get payment i pay the postage and walk to the postbox.

im picking the bigger orders at the moment because its more work and they need to be weighed etc and also because i have had to split the bigger orders into multiple packages to fit in the postbox.

I devised a price for assembled and non-assembled and honestly the value was so close (within a £1) i just decided to make my life easy and have the same price either way. Hope nobody minds. If anything the assembled ones are cheaper than they should be.

Orders over £100 had free postage.

I'm slightly nervous about the orders going overseas as they'll likely take 6-8 weeks with the current mail backlog in Europe.

Is that a standard price or have they increased it?

that`s their standard price they have not increased it so its still 12 dollars plus shipping for 2 sockets
