Oh man, I am playing a waiting game right now too.
I ordered two copies of the same album, one from Germany and one from France, and right now it's a race to see which arrives first.
Whichever does goes to my Santee... but I have no idea how long it takes for these things to arrive in Connecticut from Europe!

I'm just guessing: your Santee is interested in music that is not widely available or even pressed in the US?

I think it sounds more like he has a santee outside of America and couldn’t get a local vendor to ship it to them for him.
 
don't fidget don't fidget don't fidget

OH GOD I HOPE MY PACKAGE DIDN'T END UP LOST IN THE MAIL.. ITS BEEN STUCK IN THE SAME PLACE FOR LIKE 2 DAYS AND IM NERVOUS I SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST PUT SOME INSURANCE ON IT OR SOMETHING
 
Santa came 😍😍😍

two real world picks too! The label of the moment! I’m really excited to give these a go. I’ve heard @Skalap rave about Les Amazones D’Afrique and I’ve been meaning to give them a go so it’s great to have it and after combing the real world website the breath had been another act I’d been meaning to check out.

Santa you smashed it! I’m sorry but I couldn’t work you out from the note (see the current AoTM thread, I’m no sleuth) but I really appreciate this. Thank you so much!

This is all after-the-fact, unhelpful stuff but, if you have a PayPal account, a scale, and a printer, you can use this link:

https://www.paypal. com/?cmd=_ship-now

And see what your price options are. Sometimes, you can find an option that is better than what a post office employee might offer. It's been a while since I shipped something 4 pounds internationally, so I can't guarantee there is cheaper but mailing pins and small stuff internationally is like $15 on PayPal and then like way way more expensive when I check the usps shipping calculator.

Yeah, In my experience postal office workers don’t know their policies or shipping that well. I had a postal employee tell me that records didn’t qualify for media mail once, that it was only for movies. I had to bust out the USPS site to show her what items qualified. Back in the comic book days, they used to try to tell me that collected editions didn’t qualify because they were comics (single issues don’t qualify because of ads).

Of course, I had to tell my IT department who to submit a ticket to the other day to get it serviced, so I may just be a magnet for people who have no idea what they are talking about.
