    No time for this. Any free hobby time is going to be spent on speaker world and tips and tricks for folks there. Skip me please.

    Loaner warchest is funded by the members and kept separate from the for profit part of SBAF.

    I saw the alert and was hoping they have gone to the next person on the list.

    Totally my fault.

    USPS attempted delivery to the wrong address, sent me a notice without attempting redelivery, and I finally had redelivery scheduled for 8/10. That is when I received it. I can share tracking for proof is there is any question.

    Apologies for lack of updates. I won't keep them the full 5 days since receipt.

    Sorry friends!

    Forgot I was in the que for these.

    @Vansen - due to my upcoming move (and general life disruption) could you remove me from this loaner? Thank you!

    Thanks for the update @E_Schaaf! No worries. Just wanted to make sure they were not missing.

    The last loaner I was a part of they were hung up for 2 months.

    Just want to share the current trouble.

    Sundara was not delivered yet. Tracking history has been unchanged for one week. Today I contacted USPS and asked to find the package (I have no idea where it is now.. . Oh well).

    Will follow-up soon.

    I use usps, alot. Often they are the least expensive and quickest option. BUT...on a few occasions packages just drop off the map never to be seen again.

    Take for instance, a tube amp that I bought. Made it to the local Atlanta hub on time and then...poof...gone. I did a missing package request and two months later, nothing. And then, one day it just showed up. Occasionally, usps sends me a notice saying that they are still looking for it...morons.

    I finally got the loaner unit. Surely my inner distrust toward usps has increased. Maybe it's just a problem only for this local usps. I dunno...

    @Vansen - could I get pushed down a few spots since I no longer live in the Midwest? I am now living in San Diego so I could catch them during the socal part of the tour, thanks!
