Not too long ago on this group someone posted a note asking about
turnaround times for orders. The post specifically mentioned Penn
State.
Today I made an order to Penn State and an order to Packard. The Penn
State order was an order for pen blanks. (Normally I use wood that I
get for free but I had received some wood from them in a previous
order and well, heck, the stuff looked so much better than the Maple I
have here. The Packard order was for some pen kits and some
Renaissance Wax.
The orders were placed within 20 minutes of each other and I have
received the automated replay from each. I will let y'all know when
they get in.
UPDATE #1
Received Packard shipment yesterday at 3:45. The order was placed on
Monday and received on Wednesday
UPDATE #2
Got shipment confirmation last night from Penn State. USPS is the
shipper. No word on when the package will arrive.
Update #3
Package left the Indianapolis post office 3 April @ 6:00pm. While I
can drive
the distance between here and Indy in one hour, apparently the USPS
has
problems doing so. OTOH, the package may have beem sitting in the B-
ton
post office for the past 4 days.
