Hi Robert

That's fine. There's no hurry. I was just worried that it had gone astray somewhere between the US and Australia.

Nothing like the stress of moving house to add into the mix.

Cheers, Dieter

Hi Robert

Your New York address is the one being used for the Super Swap. Is this still ok?

Regards

Steve,

It's good for another two weeks and after that I'm having mail forwarded to my new address. I can provide you the new address in a private message.

Thanks,
Robert

Dieter,

Again, my sincere apologies for the delay. The timing was difficult for me because I had to move quickly between states due to my job situation, and all of my stuff was boxed up for the move. I have my new house now and all of my stuff is being delivered on Friday, so I'll get the package in the mail for you on Friday and I'll pay the extra to get it there overnight.

After this, I'll be able to respond immediately to swaps because I'll be in a stable address.

Thanks for your patience,
Robert

Hi Robert

I've been away from my computer for a few days, so sorry I could not respond earlier.
If you have not sent the package yet, don't go to huge expense. Send it as you would normally. I'm sure we all understand delays can occur, especially when everything is boxed for moving house.

Looking forward to receiving it.

Cheers, Dieter

Dieter,

The box went out today and should be there by Wednesday or Thursday because I paid the extra to send it more quickly. I'm completely moved in now to the new place in Maryland and can finally get to my collection. Next time around, I'll be able to get something out the same week I receive a package. Again, thanks so much for your patience.

Robert

Hi all

Thanks Robert

Box no 2 arrived down under yesterday, and I picked it up from the post office today (Friday evening). Haven't had a close look yet, but looks like an interesting group of mineral specimens. Thanks to all who contributed.

I will get it off on the next leg of its journey on Monday or Tuesday.

Cheers, Dieter

Hi Joe,

Micro mineral box No 2 was mailed at midday today. Not sure how long it will take, but Australia Post is usually pretty good.

I loved all the specimens, and kept 6. I hope that is not too much.

I trust there is something in the box you like.

Cheers,

Dieter

I'm looking forward to what is in the box.

Cheers Mark.

Yikes! I sent 2 packages about 3 weeks ago one to you in Australia and one to France during the same visit to the post office. The package to France made it there a week ago. If you don't see it soon, please let me know and I will send another.
Best Regards,
Joe

Howdy Joe and everyone else in the group,

The parcel has arrived safe and sound here, and I will be going through it tonight and sending it on to Jim, tomorrow. It only has one leg of its journey left now, then back to its starting place.

Without looking through the microscope, what I did see at the post office, it looks like a good selection from which to choose.

Cheers Mark.

Howdy All,

Just wondering if there is any word as to my parcel arriving at Jim's yet?

It was post some time ago now and I have heard nothing.

Cheers Mark

Hi All,
I took photos of all 6 Australian specimens I rec'd in the swap. I posted them on the MMNE website, if yu are interested.

My photography leaves a lot or room for improvement.
