Just recently I made my first real "Head-Fi" purchase, a pair of Sony MDR-V6's from Hogwild.com. At the time, I was away from college on break, and I didn't trust the vendor to ship my headphones before I returned to school, so I had them sent to my dorm building. Now, after miraculously arriving back in Chicago despite a blinding snowstorm that crippled O'Hare, I rush back here to find out that since no one was staffing my building the last few weeks, my package was sent to another dorm's mail room. Apparently, there's nothing for me to do but wait "a few days" for an e-mail that will allow me to claim my 'phones, currently residing in a storeroom that's only a ten-minute walk away. If I'm not careful this disappointment will lead me to cheer myself up by ordering a pair of Alessandro's (or, more prudently, Senn MX500s). Sorry to waste everyone's time reading this, but I felt sure that other Head-Fi members would feel my pain (in a way the mail room lady clearly did not).
