I can see why. The postage canceling machine at USPS split the evelope and crimped the tube. The purfling remained in good shape.

In that case thanks for everything else.

OK, the last two go out Friday (had to wait on verification of labels).

Anybody in Canada get them yet?

I suspect overseas locations to be much slower, and would appreciate hearing from you as soon as you get them.

Haven't got them in Windsor yet. It usually takes 2 weeks from southern USA to get to Windsor. I received my HoldHeet from my buddy in Hattiesburg MS today, bliss and he mailed it 2 1/2 weeks ago.

Argh! Well, lets hope that is an isolated case. I was going to use cardboard tubes, but I could not find enough. If I ever do this again, I will get the cardboard tubes ahead of time.

Mike,

It takes only minutes for packages to arrive in Canada. The problem arises once they reach here. I have witnessed dead people running faster than Canada Post delivers mail. For some unbeknown reason, a package has to be touched by a postal employee, in every major city in Canada before it can be delivered. idunno

Sorry u missed the group buy. I think we will do this again sometime after Christmas. I can't imagine there would be enough interest to generate the required volume. However, if you can find enough folks to order at least 100 strips in type counts of no less than 5 each per order, get back in touch with me.
