Dario,

Please substitute 2 Black Titanium Rollerballs for the 2 Rhodium Rollerballs I originally ordered. Please have threaded ends on each. I origanally wanted one Rhodim with tapered end and the other threaded. Make both the black Tn Rollerballs with threaded ends. Thanks and thanks again for doing this.

Dario,
Thought I had posted here earlier but it doens't seem to be so, Anyway I responded to your email I would like to replace the 2 Rhodium rollerballs in my order with 1 gold TN threaded and 1 black TN threaded rollerball. Thanks
 
Update:

Revised order qty is emailed to Nils.

We had a few cancellations (15 kits total) from 3 participants...one through email, 2 for no response.

Note, we are okay (discount wise) since our order total is still 213 kits (after the cancellations).
 
Dario,

I just returned from being out of the country for a week. I've read about the problem with the Rhodium pens. I'll be happy to substitute them for the Black Titanium pens. Sorry for the delay. I didn't know [as you didn't either] there would be a problem. Thanks, Dario, for all your good work on this order.

John,

Sorry but (as posted above) I had to take action and make a decision for those who failed to respond (so not to delay the shipping)...and my decision was to cancel that part of the order.

I will issue a refund with the kits when shipped.
 
UPDATE:

A small portio of the order arrived today:
10 TN Jr Gent FP and
07 TN Jr Gent RB

A UPS truck also came later today and I hurriedly went to meet the driver but she cannot find our package [V]...they think it was loaded on another truck or something and should arrive tomorrow.

Talk about major disappointment on my part.[:I] FYI, there should be 3 packages all in all.

Anyway, I can wait another day... [;)]
 
UPDATE:

As I was driving off this morning, I noticed a box by my porch. UPS delivered early and just left a $2,000.00 box of kits and accs by my front door!!! [:0][:(!]

I am glad no one decided to pick it up or else, they (their insurance) will have to pay for it. If I am a crooked customer...I could claim it never got here.
 
As updated on the main page...the last package arrived today and I will try my best to pack and ship as much as I can tonight. Those will be mailed tomorrow.

The rest will surely be packed tomorrow night and shipped Wednesday.

Thank you.
 
Hey Dario, You ready for the bottle of scotch yet? I would have been over the edge by now!!! Sorry you had to go through all this.
Thanks Again
Gary
 
Heck, I think I'm about ready for a drink just reading all the time and trouble he has had on this.

Dario, I believe we all appreciate and thank you sincerely for all your efforts, I know I do..!! [:)]

Aug. 22, 2006 Update

All kits were sorted and packed last night. About half were labelled and ready for shipping. I will try (but not sure) if I can print all labels at noon and ship everything today.

For sure all remaining batch (if any) will be labelled tonight and ship tomorrow.

<b>I beg you, please let me know when the package reach you so I can check it off as completed. </b>

I've done my share, please do yours too.

Thank you.
 
All labels printed and ready to go...except wood-of-1kind and UKpenmaker. I need your phone no. because it required by the USPS shipping form. Email sent also.
 
Dario,

My order [and check] arrived in good condition today. Thanks for all you did to make this group buy happen. Well done! Now I look forward to making my first Jr Gent pens. [:)]

Gary,

You owe me nothing. That includes insurance and you paid for it added on the kit unit prices [:)]

Thank you guys. I am checking each one who posted or emailed me about their shipment updates.
 
Dario your gonna love this one. Got home last night and found a note in the mailbox that I had a package from you that couldn't be delivered because it had to be SIGNED FOR. Should get it today I'll let ya know


Tony
 
Dario, me too... I'll pick them up tonight or tomorrow at the post office. I love the fact that they would just abandon the whole shipment on your porch without a backwards glance, but my little box needs my personal signature and probably a thumbprint and 3 forms of ID! I'm sure there is a trenchant commentary on life in a bureaucracy somewhere in there... [;)]

cheers Eileen[8D]
 
Guys,

Note that the ones who left the package on my porch is UPS (the brown company)...your packages are shipped via USPS.

USPS tracking sucks big time but they (at least for me) have been very reliable so far (knock on wood).

Since the lost, UPS called me 3 times asking the same set of questions.
Have I received the package?
When was it delivered?
Was it here all along and I just didn't notice it?
Is this a replacement package or the original one?
Do I still have the original packaging and can I give them the tracking no.?
etc. etc.

It is hilarious to a point...then it get really old fast. LOL
 
Dario,

I received my order(all correct) in yesterday's regular mail. Thank you for all your efforts on this group purchase. I am sure that you had a real mental meltdown regarding the 3rd box. I am an ebay addict and have had problems with both UPS and Fed Ex. USPS has been much better.
Fed Ex really drives me crazy. Sometimes when they can't make a delivery they enter it as delivered at 11:45 pm or so. Their customer service maintains that they do make deliveries at night. The package shows up next day to three days later. The fact you paid for a guaranteed delivery means nothing as their records show delivery. This has happened to me twice.
 
Dario, I also received a note in my mailbox yesterday telling me I had an insured package waiting at the post office. Hopefully the wife will remember to pick it up today !!! I'll let you know when it's in MY hands [:D].
 
Dario,
I got my order today!It arrived safely,and correct. [8D]
I want to thank you for all your efforts in this
group buy.[:)] First fountain pens in this bunch;really
looking forward to that.
THANKS AGAIN!!!!
 
Dario,
I picked up my order today, all correct and complete. I sincerely appreciate your taking this chore on for us! Can't wait to try the kits!

cheers Eileen [8D]
 
Dario,
The wife came through and picked my shipment up today !! You did a great job with this group buy. I know it was a big pain in the behind !!

Peter,

Thanks for the update.

There are still 6 participants who didn't receive their packages. I expect UKpenmaker will be the last but the rest should have theirs by now.

10 Ukpenmaker - PAID mailed 8/22
09 06 bluesky - PAID mailed 8/22
15 elody21 - PAID mailed 8/22
08 Jerryconn - PAID mailed 8/22
07 Penhead - PAID mailed 8/22
12 Pikebite - PAID mailed 8/22
 
Thanks Andrew.

Yours actually got delayed a bit because the Post Office didn't notice the custom's declaration on the back of the package and they returned it to me. I had to re-ship it 2 day later.
 
Dario,
After some REAL hassles with my local post office I have my kits.
Thanks a lot for putting this together and giving up your time for us.
Jerry

I can confirm that the pen kits have arrived at the US address I gave you. They will not be with me for a few weeks but I am sure they will be correct.

Many thanks for doing this group buy.
