Ok - It's official. I've been lurking here for a little while, finally joined...Why is it that I keep checking the UPS website for my delivery of my headphones?!?!?

I mean I know they are lowly HD-201s, but still... I'm like a kid in a candy store and I dont even HAVE them yet!

I just cant figure out how you guys can be so patient!!

We let out our anger in the "I hate waiting for parcels!" thread.

That's why we keep buying stuff, so we eventually get numb from the whole waiting process.

Um... patient? Who said we were patient? You hem and haw, ask questions, research and you finally settle on a pair of headphones or whatever. You put in your order. Then you want them... YESTERDAY!!!

That's the order of things around here.

Welcome aboard and welcome to the madness that is Head-Fi!

Or maybe if you keep buying stuff, you'll get a package every day!

The UPS lady knows me by name... is that a bad sign?

Well I give my FedEx guy demos of my latest stuff and Coltrane aquisitions all the time, is that a worse sign? Our UPS guy at my office thinks all we do is buy wine and audio gear.

Welcome to Head-Fi. Sorry about your wallet.


after awhile it gets so bad, as you'll have prefered shipping carriers, knowing the better shipping times with accurate tracking, and know aprox. cost by experience, as well as how they generally treat packages. I know what time of day my UPS brown guy passes this street for deliverys even, so I can meet 'em in the driveway to expidite the process.
And don't even let me start with the hold up in international shipping post 9/11...ARRGGGHHHH!!!

Waiting never gets any easier. My highest daily post count is always the highest while nervously waiting. And the butt prints on the front porch and the nose prints on the front glass are lasting impressions as well.

hehehe people in my post office all know me now. I don't even have to go in to check if I have a package. The guy outside just signals me with a nod if a package has arrived
