ft:3 royal blue ls/o for whites

[snakebite]

need some white ls/o units and these royal blues are just sitting here.
they are ca'd to a cpu heatsink and connected in series.
can be removed.

[Willmore]

I have a white ls/o that I'd trade for a royal blue. Are the RBs /o or bare or on a star board? The barrer the better. images/icons/smile.gif

[snakebite]

i have a bare emitter if you need it.
not hard to seperate.

[Willmore]

Cool. Bare emitter is easiest as I would scream very profane things if I were to destroy such a wonderful thing.

Email sent. Psss, I'm N0YMV, FWIW. images/icons/smile.gif

[Willmore]

Okay, I sent the white LS/O on Aug 20. I have yet to receive anything.

[snakebite]

i will look and see if it got lost in the shuffle here.
some days we have 50+ items to mail.
if not i guess the postman likes ls too:-)
psssst fwiw i am kc8adu

[snakebite]

i found it!
my help had a bunch of stuff in his truck to go to the post office and it wound up on the floor.
slid out the side of the plastic stacking trays we use i guess.
so it is accounted for and will go out asap.

[Willmore]

Oh, sweet day! Maybe I'll get it by the weekend! Thanks, kc8adu. images/icons/smile.gif

*edit* 9/16 Maybe tomorrow.

[Willmore]

Hmm, okay, is the postal mail this slow? Not normally, I think. I've not received it. Did you get it sent off? It's been a month since you were going to first send it.

[snakebite]

give it a few more days and i wiil send out another.
the usps has lost 2 other packages that went out at the same time.
big ticket stuff that luckily is insured.
starting to look like you are not meant to own a rb ls emmitter.

[Willmore]

Still nothing and no response to emails, either.

[Willmore]

Don't say things like that!
*turn to the side* Hush little regulator, don't listen to the mean snakeey-wakey. You'll have a friend soon. Very soon.....

USPS is convenient, but not reliable. UPS is less convenient and a bit more reliable. FEDEX is damn convenient and very reliable, but you pay for what you get. Hmmm, make that "you never get more than you pay for" as you don't always get *all* that you pay for. How's that?

Thanks.

[Willmore]

Still holding on here for my LED.

[snakebite]

hadnt heard from you in a while so i thought it might have made it.
i got another here i will send in a box.
i have heard that auction folks are losing lots of stuff sent usps in bubble mailers.

[Willmore]

Okay, I'll keep an eye open for it in the mail.

[Willmore]

Still keeping an eye out. Haven't seen anything, yet.

[Willmore]

Mailbox still lonely.

[grift]

i know this is none of my business but, DAMN!!!

its been 4 months and poor Willmore is still waiting. your patience is more than i can ever hope to have.

good luck to ya

[snakebite]

got the package back beat to crap.
undeliverable.
ls is fine though.
looks like the abuse occurred after the rts sticker was applied.
its like some force is trying to stop you from having that rb ls emitter.
i will send it again priority mon with dc and see what happens.
please email or pm me your address to be sure.
it just said undeliverable??????
sucks!

[Willmore]

Okay, address resent by private message.

[Willmore]

Didn't make it by Thanksgiving. Maybe christmas.

[papasan]

christmas of what year is the question.

Hey guys what is going on here?

[Willmore]

I'm waiting for the RB LS emitter that I traded a white LS/o for some months ago. It seems to have trouble getting to me.

[snakebite]

found out what all the trouble is.
seems i transposed numbers in your address.
i bet one of your neighbors is wondering what the weird looking thing in the antistatic bag is.
i printed from your email this time so you should get it this time.it will go in tomorrows mail.
why the second got returned but not the first is anyones guess.

[Willmore]

Which numbers did you transpose? I could check with my neighbors. I know most of them. I'll keep checking the mail.

[snakebite]

i will look at the old package when i get to work.
it would be nice if you can retrieve the other one.
then you would have 2 to play with.

[Willmore]

Did you find it? I haven't seen anything here.

[InTheDark]

This is almost like a soap opera, I can't wait to see how it turns out.

[papasan]

almost?

[Bushman]

i have been lurking here for awhile now. Time to move this to Cheers and Jeers until this gets resolved graemlins/icon13.gif

[snakebite]

found the address i sent to.
check with your neighbor at 4302.
i now just print out addresses and tape to the box so i dont do this again.
i also seperate personal and business packages so i dont wind up with another confusing mess.
the replacement is coming usps priority with d.c.
if you can get the other one back enjoy it.
sorry for the @#$%up.

[Willmore]

Thanks, I'll expect them. Do you have a tracking number for it?

[Willmore]

Hey, Bushman, can you move this topic back to buy/sell? It's no longer suitable for this forum--unless you want to convert it to a cheers. :) Came home today and found a nice little box waiting for me with an absolutely paranoidly wrapped RB LB emitter in it.

Beautiful color, it was worth the wait. :) Gotta mount it on a heat sink and see what it looks like at full power (only ran 25ma through it without heatsink). Don't want to wait this long and then kill it. :)

Thanks, snakebyte. Oh, no luck tracking down the guy at 4302--seems the current guy moved in in the last month. :( Post office assures me that if it wasn't delivered, it was returned--and they never make mistakes, and politicians never lie, and....

[Saaby]

So the issue is resolved then? Here's what I am going to do--this is kind of a long thread for a cheer so why don't you start a new thread to cheer snakebite if you wish and I'll close this down and open the one in B/S/T back up in case you feel we need additional commentary.
