Maybe that was it?? All I know is that the receipt says "(Guaranteed Delivery) (Wednesday January 24, 2018) (Money Back Guarantee)" All 3 packages left Cedar Rapids last night @ 10:32pm. Reef's landed in Des Moines this morning. MacKenzie's and Aussie's are likely in Chicago, but the status doesn't say so yet. You probably paid for international priority mail which is also why it cost so much. I always ship to Aussie the cheapest way possible. 2 boxes ago (a really heavy box) was the most expensive shipping to him at just over $100. The box I sent him pictured in this thread was $75.

tony b Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 @ckreef - Aussie's box weighed just over 9.5 lbs and shipping was $89.45. So, pretty much in line with what you paid. I had originally requested "cheapest way," then as I said, the Postal guy said it qualified for the free upgrade. Didn't question it, just rolled with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted January 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Robert's package that was supposed to deliver yesterday is now in delayed status. I figured as much as the south just can't handle a little snow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Ora Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Aussie's box is in limbo right now, MacKenzie's has left Chicago, and Reef's has left Des Moines. Your package is flying in Chicago already .https://m.usps.com/m/TrackConfirmAction_detail?tLabels=EW001841364US. From there straight to Japan and judging by how strict Japanese train timetables are .http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-11-17/japan-train-apology-for-leaving-20-seconds-early/9161456.

tony b Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 MacKenzie's box has cleared Canadian customs, so they didn't think it was pot after all! Reef's is either in or near Danville and should be delivered tomorrow! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted January 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 My package beat Aussie's package but I figured Aussie Post would stuff it up and that's with USPS slightly stuffing my package up. Anyway here we go. Let me say you had me fooled with the red, tasted good but no big deal. I dove head first into the yellow, whoa, drink some beer. Couldn't stop now onto tasting the brown, Yikes!! Drink a lot more beer, didn't help - LOL Will have to make Mrs skreef some French toast this weekend so we can try the Bourbon Barrel Maple Syrup. Thank you @tony b for an awesome package. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
