Personally, for me...so far, so good.

I had no fewer than 7 deliveries today...it was like a conga line.

And all of my coin purchases have arrived intact and on time...much better than earlier this year, which was a complete and total nightmare.

    My bonus CC privy Morgan showed up today and I can assure you that it is not a coin that was returned. Out of the 21 coins I had previously received from the 2021 Morgan/Peace series this ranks with the best of the group.

    My Dan Carr 1884 CC canceled die showed up about a week ago and is awesome. Was kind of hoping that my Norse American Centennial would have made it but that window has pretty much closed.

    Bunch of cheap slabbed Frankies also came in early this week. Overall I’m a pretty happy camper.

    Cheers all and happy holidays!

    No...seems Santa let me know that I didn't get it in early enough.

    I got a beautifully toned IHC from a forum Santa and I'll be grinning eat to ear well into the New Year.

    I have 12 orders in flux.
    The worst 2 my 2021-CC that shipped Dec.16 and has been bouncing around Delaware for over a week.
    the next is a shipment from Canada, I have no idea where that is and a shipment from England arrived in the US over a week ago and has been back and forth between 2 Philadelphia centers.
    It's like last year where packages are not making it to local post office.

    Everything has arrived. Some a little later than others, but everything got here.
    An overall amazing job by all the carriers.

    I am awaiting 2 packages.
    1st one is in the mail coming from GC.
    The second has yet to be shipped from Heritage.
    I have no control on when an item goes up for bidding, so I am at the auction house's mercy.
    Hopefully they arrive before the New Year.

    Not me, not this year.
    I am finding much more satisfaction helping others this time of year. $100 here $100 there and so forth will help others enjoy the holiday. I have one more to do this evening - a go fund me to a single mom whose home burned down a week ago.

    Merry Christmas!

    Nightmare here. A UPS employee decided to cut my box open, remove all contents, tape the box back up and reroute it for a few days to by time. I was handed an empty box to sign for. I handed it back to the driver and asked him what he thought. He kept saying oh no, oh no, oh no. Awful end to the year.

    Merry Christmas to all.

    I have to say the USPS must of decided come Hell or High water they were going to come through this holiday season! I just checked the tracking on my ebay shipments in the past week. I have 1 from 2 days ago and 4 I shipped yesterday that have not been delivered. This is out of around 50 shipments going all over the place and they are all 1st class mail!

  • tokenprotokenpro Posts: 885 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Fed Ex did a heck of a job. My shipment from Dallas was split in two (19# package & 42# package) and picked up Monday evening from the sender. The smaller package was dispatched by air through the Black Hole (Memphis) and the larger was sent by truck. Somehow they both showed up at the regional distribution center Thursday night (1000 mile trip), were reunited and delivered Friday at Noon (with a comment from my regular driver - good guy -- asking why I order so many &#($&#^ books. I thanked him but didn't tell him that they were not late arriving Xmas presents but just inventory that could have waited until Monday.

    Thank you Santa!!

    Last night the coin I wanted to get here was delivered to my PO Box 😉
    Rural post office closes the sales /pick-up section at noon. They do use the afternoon to get as many items as possible sorted and out for pickup.

    Santa was good to me. Brought me some gold. Dad bought this new for $60 and passed it on to me today.

    I have seen that majestic looking building with the beautiful dome from far (it is right next to the freeway in downtown Hartford) and was wondering if they were going to pull it down.
