Ok, ParcelForce f****d up nicely! ScottishKilts.net sent me my new kilt plus accessories at monday by Euro 48. Should have been here by today at least. We'll... PF delivered my parcel to Poland instead of Finland! Now it has been stored there for 2 days because of "insufficient address". I needed it today because tomorrow I leave to Southern-Finland until after christmas. ScottishKilts.net promised to deal with ParcelForce so it will be delivered to my friend in Southern-Finland. So I get it next friday when I go visit him. Damn... I already thought the jonesing was over! Thanks ParcelForce, you should take lessons for "Basics of Reading" :P Well, people do mistakes... I'm not flawles either but...

Sounds like DHL, but at least "Parcelforce" tried to remedy the situation.

Ackwell, of course, meant "blew it" instead of "blew up." For a moment there, Ackwell, I was afraid you had really lost your temper!

I believe this is the first time I ever heard of a package being delivered to the wrong country. Tho' it happens to luggage, so I guess it shouldn't be so surprising.

I buy my stained glass supplies by wholesale and recently a shipment from the distributor did not arrive. It was one box out of 7 that were missing. So we checked with FedEx ground for the location. Apparently that one box got separated from it's brothers and took a trip from New Jersey to Virginia (DC Metro Area) by way of Reno, Nevada.

Of course it's still not as bad as an order the distributor is waiting on from a manufacturer (and which has several back-orders of mine on it). The freight company can't find their entire truck! How do you lose a truck?

I've almost lost count of the times things I've orderd have been sent to Chatsworth California instead of Chatsworth Georgia. Fed Ex in L.A has called twice for directions and that gives new meaning to the term mutual confusion.
