It's been almost a month since my last post, and I'm still waiting for my poster.....

Ernst.

I wish there was a way to track international shipments. All I have is a receipt that it was sent out. Yours was mailed 3/28. I really don't know what to do. My role was to package and mail them. Maybe Jeff or George knows what to do.

That is a good question, not sure when you can consider an international shipment to be truely lost.

Maybe contact your local post office to inquire if they got any mailing tube packages sent from North Carolina? Or find out if there is a way to confirm if the package was received at customs?

I got the button from Xyzzy three months after he posted it. So I would wait another few weeks.

Ernst got his poster a few days ago but it looks like they dropped it from the airplane directly to his house, instead of delivering it the usual way.

We've sent out a replacement poster (first class) so hopefully this will have a happy ending.

Garo-

Was the money still in the envelope?

Wow, with the overkill and careful the packaging you did, that is very surprising. They must have dropped it from high altitude then...

It is possible that the extreme heat of re-entry may have melted the protective plastic structural wrapping.
