… and by the way - I'm sick of this summer heat!! 
For me as utterly flannel junkie is this weather like garlic for vampires. 

Summer's going fast though, it'll be fall before you know it. I'm with you, I cant wait.

Shipping anywhere in the world is generally reasonably quick. A parcel can reach Australia in less than a week.

However, once it's in Australia it really slows. I've just received a package from Ringwood, which is 22 km (or 14 miles) from me. It's taken about a week and a half to get here, at a pace of 2 km, or just over a mile, a day.

i don't mind the time. more of the charges. when shipping costs you 70-80% of the price of say a pair of sneakers/boots. however on the contrary, they've been pretty quick for me in oz, more of the slowness comes from overseas, US mostly where it takes ages to leave the country and that i struggle ALOT to get shipping updates.

@Seul this is my postman. The kangaroo would be a lot faster.

[Seul]

He would be faster if he wasn't a surly drunk that got into fights every 2 clicks…

Be pleased with the snail-post … kangaroos are insidious and dangerous bastards!

I don't get the scam here, but it feels like one… Put my IH-1955-UHRs up for sale on Grailed... Interested buyer

Thanks for swift response, Showing you are willing to sell…How much is

final price? I can only pay check because i have problem with my pay pal
account that is why am paying you by check  and the check has to clear
before you release for pick up at your location by shipping agent without
stressing yourself for shipping...If you agree email ur name,address phone
number to mail out the check...

Looking forward to hear from you

I tell him I can't do check, and ask where he's from… USA, he claims... Tell 'm I'm from Belgium, and check won't work (again)... He sends this...

Okay pls i will like to do business with you and how many of the item
do you have in your store..becos they called me now that they need
more if you can send me invention to your Belgium

[rocket]

so I'm not the only one having this kind of conversations….

anyway, let him pay by Western Union and cash the money before you ship.... no risk...

[seanocono]

Haha. That's some pretty awful English conversion right there.

You're selling an essentially brand new pair of UHRs for a great price. Even if this isn't a scam (which I think it is), it's not worth the headache. They will sell. Move along.
