I chose the rosewood as i own a set of LCD2 so i thought i would complete my antique looking rig.. lol...

Both your LCD2 and Heir CIEM's would go really well - visually - with my 'antique' looking ipod....

Called UPS today and it looks like they've lost track of the package (both CIEMs) after it arrived in Alaska 

 
I was counting on getting them by today or tomorrow and now I'm not sure when 

 
I've got a similar issue... I got a tracking number for the UPS shipment, but under the 'destination' area of the tracking page it has been set to deliver to Idaho, while I live in NC. I asked and they contacted UPS and apparently this is something that UPS did as a temporary measure because they hadn't updated the tracking page with my address yet, or it wasn't cleared or something ... not really sure what's going on there. It says there's one day left till delivery, but according to the tracking page it hasn't touched down in the US yet and it's still labeled as going to Idaho. Maybe it's some quirk with customs? I haven't really tracked international packages much. Has this sort of thing happened to anyone else when shipping stuff internationally before?
 
I'm trying not to worry too much over the tracking information, but when I see that it has 1 day left and it's still labeled as going to a different state.. hmm. Well, we'll see I guess.

You shouldn't worry too much. The package is likely insured so if anything does happen then, worst case scenario, you just wait longer while they're replaced.

I emailed Heir Audio about the problem.  Dr. Moulton replied and says they are on the case, and Nancy will talk to UPS as soon as she gets in (it's not yet 4:30 AM there).

That's just like The Wizard to be up in the middle of the night, answering emails.... I swear he never sleeps.
 
I do recall UPS doing strange things with their tracking though. Maybe it was this thread a while back, or maybe some other thread, I can't recall. But multiple people reported their tracking showing up as some crazy location, like another state or showing an East Coast destination when they lived in California. I don't think we ever figured out if these detours were really happening or if it was just the tracking software displaying the wrong info temporarily.

Sleep is for mortal men. He is, as we all know, a practitioner of the audio-arcanum.

In the realm of design there is no such thing as plain. There is minimalist, gestalt, simple, clean... With yours I'd actually go with pure.

it only took them 2 weeks after receiving my impressions.. thats very very fast!
 
Thumbs up for HeirAudio!

Did we establish whether or not the ownership transfer remould service could be used by the original owner if the fit becomes less than perfect after a while? I think someone asked this already.

Kind of off-topic, but you have very evenly matched ears. Your left and right CIEMs look almost identical in shape.

Symmetry.  A nice compliment.

Haha.. i noticed that too.. but its more important that they fit perfectly (almost) rather than to look symmetrical..

I apologize. When it said *one day remaining* and it showed the status as being on the westcoast and the destination set to Idaho, and then when I called UPS and they told me the full address was a mixture of my street address and another state, I thought for sure that it was in fact being delivered there.
 
I turns out that it's UPS that was clueless, and Nancy from Heir Audio was right - it *still* shows the destination address as being Idaho and a mixture of my street address and another state, but it now suddenly indicates that the package is on the east coast and is out for delivery today.
 
If this happens to anyone else, just ignore everything on the tracking page except "estimated delivery".
