Konrad you panicked me when you wrote:

 

I also want to declare that Third group buy is the last group of my inks for very long time.

 

​I started hyperventilating and had nausea attacks. It was terrible.

I've been checking my email inbox, though I had no idea that my fpn inbox was full. My apologies for the communication snag. I spoke with Konrad via email and I think everything is sorted out. Again, I'm sorry to cause a logistic snag.

 

I'm so looking forward to all the amazing inks. And thank you everyone involved in the group buy and logistics, double thanks to Knorad.

When we couldn't reach you via your email, we tried PM... just to find that it was full.

 

In any case, all is good now.

Dear participants in Group Buy #3 there might be some delays on delivery to US.

On November 2014 USPS changed it's information system and one of companies that was doing sorting of mail for them was replaced. Since that time there is constant build up of domestic undelivered mail in US which slowed flow of all packages in US. From January they made the same changes for international parcels which increased the build up of undelivered international parcels which was growing problem since November. Weather in February was bad in New York, but this can not be excuse for every problem and delay.

The status "Origin Post is preparing shipment" is not a glitch but intentional act made by USPS, so they do not have to respond to complaints and claims made to them. If they have large delays, than they simply do not scan the codes on packages and update international postal system, after that they pretend dumb when anybody asks about anything. During Holiday time they there is rapid increase in number of parcels send to and from US, and this is one of the reasons why we wanted to wait a bit with Group Buy #3, but honestly... it is almost end of March now!

From information seen on forums and calls I made to my post office is that delays on international parcels vary from 3 to 8 weeks (this is random). The last parcel to US with inks left Poland on board of plane 4 days ago, the first one 12 days ago.

I have to say that maybe I'm approaching this too emotionally but frustration from being powerless in this situation is overwhelming. Delays happen in international shipping and I can leave with that, but lack of information from USPS is a big problem.

I also found a petition on the Internet, it is hard to say is it going to help, but we can always try

Konrad, don't get frustrated. We will love the inks whenever they arrive.

[Barkingpig]

I have signed the petition & understand your frustration. However we will live with whatever time necessary to acquire your inks. It is certainly worth the wait.

I do feel the same way... (totally worth the wait).. but then.. you all know I am biased...

I signed the petition. This is the second shipment to me from Europe this year that has temporarily joined Judge Crater and Jimmy Hoffa in the nebulous ether of ?????????.

 

To Konrad, I tend to be impatient about things like this but once the packages leave your hands you have done your job. It is out of your hands and I, for one, won't complain (to you) about the delays. To the USPS, to my wife, to my cats, yes but not to you.

 

The three inks I bought from you on the second group buy were so remarkable that I know this batch will be worth the wait. IG Turquoise is one amazing ink. I may have to stockpile that one. So is the Violet #9. You know your craft, sir. Thank you for making these inks available.
