I wish I would have known ahead of time they were gonna stop shipping stuff. I would have chose Fedex or DHL.

My stuff is there since 4/17 as well. I’d take Purgatory at this point, it’ll get out eventually. This is more like Limbo. And I ain’t talking Trini Lopez or Harry Belfonte!

It’s just hard to watch all my other packages come through. The one I was really looking forward to is stuck across the pond. Like you said it will get here eventually.

Nice! I had two rods leave Japan Friday via FedEx and they were on my porch at 9:30 Monday morning!!! Amazing!
However, I have a reel purchased over a month ago that I have no idea where it is!

Received my package today! As someone said previously, it would have nice to have known prior what was going on BUT I have been a customer of this vendor for almost 15 years.
