:thanks:

So your package made it across the pond in five days yet it took USPS 4 days to get jakeGT's to Kentucky. Frkn amazing.

For those waiting on batch 2, my PCB order is being shipped tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have them to build the drivers this weekend.


Just recieved mine, thanks Jib!

Excellent! The package that was returned was beat to hell, the bubbles in the wrap were totally deflated ... but the driver was safe, whew. Ill put it to good use with a 6x diode that I had sitting around.

Looks like yours is going to be one of those USPS is going to deliver before they update tracking. They really piss me off more and more every day.

You still on track with early April for more?

This driver is great, and not overpriced (like some drivers i know of)

so.....when you going to make a boost drive?

I bet if you designed it, you could hold a group buy/pre-order to raise funds for that initial purchase to get you going.

Steve,

I just got to work and this was in the mail :mad:

5025-return-usps.jpg


Ive now sent how many of these and now they complain about this!? WTF!
The funny thing is it *WAS* more then 3/4" thick, but it looks like their machine squished all their air out of the bubble wrap.

Ill resend ASAP.

My dad says that USPS makes some mistakes, and sometimes they are big ones: A lot of times its just lazy USPS people, its been getting worse as time goes on.

I think the post office is worse than all the others. After all these years they still have no system that is consistent. It depends on which teller you go to and which city you are in. And then there's the automated machine which has it's own set of rules. I went round and round with the manager so many times it's not funny. One teller told me she would explain it to me. She tried, but it didn't hold true the very next day and it was back to the manager again.

Then, I went on vacation in south florida where they gave me a print out with a completely different set of rules. It's totally insane and very frustrating when the recipient gets the infamous "Postage Due" notice. As the post office works towards destroying your business, they are also hurting themselves. It makes no sense. But they really don't give a sh!t. I hauled mail for eight years and understand why they invented the "Going Postal" board game!
