    @tonered , I was wondering what the plan is also. KTJO4x4 had said that she’ll use USPS but never responded when I asked about getting the tracking number. Maybe she meant UPS? Maybe the address labels are on the side we can’t see?

    We’re only speculating here. That’s why having limited knowledge and a screwdriver can be dangerous.

    Thanks!

    I had a few deliveries like that also, but never saw it from this side of things.

    It would probably be better for everyone if she withheld the details of her (sausage making) shipping operation. To paraphrase: ‘one detail is one too many and a thousand’s not enough’. :pccoffee:

    Nah. At this point, all info is good, I'm learning shit, and it's not like there is a way to decipher the situation otherwise.

    Is the individual USPS label already attached to each box from a ship station? That would make sense and have UPS do the heavy lifting to get the bulk of them to a post office in good time.

    When all you have is a screwdriver, everything looks like a flat bicycle tire.

    Honestly, I would have liked an even more insane level of detail the whole way.
    "Guangdong Province is undergoing a series of rolling blackouts, which has made it difficult to communicate with Wang Xiu Ying"
    "The texture feels more like sharkskin than lizardskin. Here's how we address that at the micrometer level."
    "Here's a pic of me at the office with a bag of hardware under my desk next to my Stacey's pita chips."
    "They've been rocking to 光年之外 while they work out the tolerance issues."
    "Here's a receipt for my lunch today. I ate South Korean BBQ while thinking about the box design."

    Etc.

    At least you aren't looking for details on the bathroom breaks.

    I'd cool with that. I'm all about information.

    Edit: I know this because my phone tells me so.

    I’m down with as much detail as I can get as well. However, when the data is confusing or contradictory, that’s where the fun begins, attempting to figure out what was really meant. :ballchain:

    I guess would depend on how Katie sets up her logistics. Hard to pull much info from a blurry photo, we can only speculate. Just sharing my experience with a similar looking UPS label.

    I bought and paid for mine on November 5th so I was not part of the pre order. I got an email from her asking to confirm my shipping address, so I should be getting mine soon. Dont know anymore, but hopes this helps you. I am assuming, but not sure, that if you order one you may get one out of this allotment. But thats up to you of course.

    They are in stock. She had 600 Black and 400 Grey made on the first run so should be plenty left to order.

    I ordered mine on December 8, and got the "pre-order" price. (In fact, her web site is still showing the "pre-order" price.) I also got the confirmation email. It looks like there are plenty to go around at this point. But, the word has circulated among the dedicated Tacoma fan base. If it gets out among the larger community, these may go fast. If you want one, now is the time. Don't wait.

    Lol I ordered 12/14 to keep the “sale price”. Order confirmation (but that’s nothing out of the ordinary and expected almost immediately). I don’t expect to be asked about address confirmation since order was just placed. I do hope I grabbed onto the coattails of everyone waiting for so long hoping for a shipping confirmation email
