the " experienced " K 1 II that I had been expecting since 08/25 has arrived
after a delay, I have it in hand
for those who want to be bored, please read on - I had posted a thread about if I rented a K 1 or K 1 II for a planned trip in September to Estes Park/RMNP, would I be doomed to want to buy one, I called it: " how dangerous is the K 1 and K 1 II "
while that thread was " developing ", a member contacted me via PM and made me an " offer I could not refused " on an " experienced " K 1 II, so I bought it and it was promptly placed in the " kind " hands of the USPS and the saga began -
______________
notices from the US PS tracking starting 8/21 that it was to be delivered on time 8/25
then on late 8/25 received notice that it was running late, delivery on 8/25 after 8 PM
then no info except it had been shipped from the original location and was " in transit "
got notice today it would be delivered before 8 PM on 8/29
left home for puppy class this AM and came home saw a note but no package
" need signature package will be available for pick up on 8/31 "
got a little mad b/c PO has my electronic signature on file
started to head to PO to complain and chose to take back route then saw a PO truck on side of street several blocks away
stopped no one there
started looking and found postman who was delivering to other houses on foot
yep, same guy
" they never tell us if any one has an e signature on file "
then " and I wouldn't have left it b/c it is drizzling "
I signed and took the package
so I have it in hand, looking it over, sent pm to seller with the whole story
no pictures yet, going through Operating Manual and E Book first tonight
