I bought a Sentinel Motor Oil sign from Andy (Itsasickness) on about the 9th of Dec. and it was shipped from St. Louis, Missouri on the 11th. I waited a few days and PM'ed Andy to see if he had a tracking number. Andy wrote back (Andy has been great this whole time) and said he would look for it, he thought he lost it. After about a week and a half, i wrote Andy again and he said he was still looking and offered my money back, i said no and lets give it some more time. Andy found the tracking number yesterday and we both checked on it! LOL This thing has traveled 4116 miles from St. Louis, Missouri to Bell Garden, California from there to Cincinnati, Ohio and then to Louisville, Kentucky. It was only 258 miles from my house two weeks ago! So today they tried to deliver it to my shop (Christmas eve) and we were closed! LOL And they say the Post Office is losing money. NO! Thanks Andy…….

My intention was not to imply you were late for IG or any other event. It was meant to pass on the frequent FLYER miles.

I don't fly, except in Neb & still on 4 wheels! Guess you have never tried to Carry-on a pump or large sign! About 10yrs ago, company I worked for did a 24hr turn around to Las Vegas by bus. I took GaspumpRob as a quest & we went pump hunting [his in-laws in Vegas loaned us a car]. I bought a Complete sq 850 & loaded it on the bus for return home. Can't do THAT on a plane. LOL

The Starkey traveled back home in a friends pickup truck (6 ft bed with the tailgate down and the bottom still hung out 1' - 1 1/2'). I can't imagine loading that beast in an effin bus OR an 850 for that matter. Brave guys!!

What I still can't understand is how I misplace a receipt in two days. Its all my wifes fault. If she would just leave things where I throw them I'd be able to find them but she feels this need to clean all the time. OCD I think.

Based on the pics you posted we will cut you some slack on not being able to find the receipt. LOL
