This made me laugh....

GUARANTEED DELIVERY IN 5 BIZ DAYS IF YOU BUY IT NOW !!

The minute anything is paid for I print out the label, wrap up the package and run it over to the post office. Yes - the post office is around the bend. Yes, around the bend - when you live in the woods it's not "down the street" or "around the block" - it's "around the bend". It's such a nice little post office - a real country post office. It was actually upsetting when they removed the original mail boxes - they were so beautiful - so old. The fact that many of them didn't work though is probably what encouraged them to change them. You know the people who work there - they are so good to me. They let me drop off my packages even when they are still closed. I knock on the door and hand them my pile of boxes that are all ready to go - and they take them with a "good morning" and a smile. I'm lucky.
When I'm in the city there is a post office just about a door away from the apartment. Yes, I recognize the people - they seem to be the same people who are there all of the time - but they don't want to recognize you, they don't want to say "hello" - they don't want to give you the FREE Priority Boxes - they are just plain NASTY! I always walk away shaking my head. What is that about?

Ahhh - getting back to my original thought!
GUARANTEED DELIVERY IN 5 BIZ DAYS IF YOU BUY IT NOW !!

Delivery should be guaranteed to go right out the moment an item is paid for - either way - regular purchase or BUY IT NOW! I never understand when I buy something and it doesn't come for a week or two. What are these people doing? I go crazy when I'm in New York on business (this happens twice a year) and I can't get my packages right out. Last year I even tried having my husband getting the items out while I was away - that turned out to be a little bit of a catastrophe (although he was really terrific). I do tell people though - in advance - so that they will know that instead of going out immediately, it might take a few extra days. People are always understanding. At this point so many of these people know me, that they actually know where I am and what I'm doing - isn't that great?
