Hi Jon,

If the shipping information is correct the pallet should be on the Vancouver dock (August 21)waiting for Shane to pick it up.

regards

Tim

Guess I jumped the gun by a day! Thanks for the update and timely reply, Tim. (Lest I sound impatient, I'm not in a hurry, I'm very appreciative of the effort you guys are going through to bring this deal to us.)

I talked to the receiving shipper on Friday and the ship was to arrive in Vancouver today (Sunday) and the package will be in their warehouse Thursday. It will then need to clear customs and I will have to get the taxes paid and then it can be shipped to my address (I am 1000 miles from Vancouver), so I hope to see it the week after next (near the end of the month)

Thanks

Shane

If they are anything like their comrades in Melbourne used to be back in the 70's Martin you may have mis-heard looters as luthiers

Cheers

Used to have a commodities dealer living next door. He used to tell me stories of entire shipments of meat going missing via the Melbourne Docks.
