Re: Where has the Traveling Prop Been?

Wow, Mike, sorry you had to go through that. I know I'd be sweatting bullets about it if it happened when I mailed it. Yeah, you'd be forever known in modeling circles as That damn Mike.

We're looking forward to playing with it in Columbia.

Yes very good news! I'm glad it didn't have to end. For the last week or so, I was thinking about ways to track it down and what to do if it isn't found. (Replace it? Restart it? Just end it and say it failed?). It would be no ones fault it is got lost in the mail, they loose stuff all the time.

MFD is out of town this weekend. Maybe it'll be there when he gets back. Monday I think.

Can I respectfully suggest it goes tracked henceforth?
Very Happy

**Admin** Fri Jun 15, 2012 12:02 pm

As much as it continues to add to the cost of shipping, I would ask that it does get tracked from now on.

**RknRusty** Fri Jun 15, 2012 5:22 pm

I agree. Too much history attached to it to lose it at this point.

Not sure, its still some ways off before the prop is over. It still has some cross country left and then its European travels. There as been talk to use a Pee Wee .020 but I believe an .049 engine would be better as just about everybody has experience in them, parts, price and so on. We'll see. I remember Jared (Jaspur_x) joked about using his MkII .15 LOL but who knows where he went!

Matt is on vacation or something so hopefully it has arrived at his house by now. If it doesn't show up, its not your fault so there is nothing you need to do to make up for it.

That's right...this could have happened to any one of us on our turn. You can't control what happens once the prop is sent, AND the show's not over, it may be waiting at Matt's house right now.

I'm sure it's not your fault.

For what it's worth I've had items delayed because I addressed the package in pencil rather than pen.

Both Canada Post and USPS use electronic scanners which don't "read" pencil entries. Items rejected by the scanners are tossed in a sort of purgatory until someone eventually gets around to manually reading them. (fact) Crying or Very sad

shell shock Tue Jun 19, 2012 1:20 pm

I gave em a call. they apologized for the delay (yah right) and said it should be there some time next week... and they wonder why people are starting to use fedex and other private companies more and more Rolling Eyes

**RknRusty** Tue Jun 19, 2012 3:23 pm

Hey, Shell Shock, sounds like you have some healing to do. Thanks for your concern. Take care of yourself and we'll see you when they kick you out of the hospital.
