No, Mr. Bill will not taking any future orders for X Marks t-shirts.

or is there an "official" X-Marks order proceedure? or???

Not at present. If something becomes available, there will be a forum announcement.

To all of the individuals that are still waiting on their shirts to be delivered, my only suggestion is to keep up trying to contact Bill. I've sent him a Private Message, asking him to clear up this misunderstanding, but I've not heard anything back from him.

Air Mail should have brought mine about two weeks ago; Surface Mail will probably be another three or four weeks from now! Just curious.

Actually, whilst I was out this morning, the Post Office tried to deliver a parcel that needed a signature on receipt. Since they could get no reply, a card was left stating that another attempt would be made on Monday - but I know I am going to be out all day on Monday also, so they'll still get no signature! Being a weekend, it is not possible for me to speak with anyone at the Post Office depot to have it redirected to a neighbour. I believe that after three failed attempts, it is policy to return parcels to the sender!!!!!!!!!

The card gave no details regarding the sender (that REALLY annoys me) but it quoted a Tracking Number. However, Bill has not advised me of any such number, so I have no idea whether this package is from him. I must just wait and hope that I am at home for the PO's third attempt.

Like Kilted Stuart, the T-shirt wearing season here will very soon be but a memory until next April or May, so I really hope the poor package lying in a huge depot some thirty miles away (and no, we cannot go and collect from there!) DOES contain my X-Marks shirts. At least, I'll be able to take one to California next month!

Hamish, can you not use the tracking number to run down the origination point for the package?

Thanks for the tip Mike - I didn't know this could be done with incoming parcels, especially those from overseas. I've just tried it and it can be done ........ but I also need the exact date of mailing!!! So I am no further forward. Nice thought though.
