Wow, so I lost track of this thread, and I can't believe where it has gone...
I didn't want to post about the problems with shipping because I didn't want anyone to make unfair judgements about any of it, without having any information. I was waiting til the whole thing was resolved, and was going to post a happy ending story about it all...
I am in no way shape or form trying to screw Rob, and I don't think he was is in any way shape or form trying to screw me. We are actually both in communication about this issue and are both working really hard with UPS to get it resolved. I didn't think posting about it online was an appropirate thing to do until it was all taken care of.
In the mean time, I cry a little everytime I see these gorgeous drums sitting in my house unuseable as I wait for UPS to get off their butt and inspect the damage.
Please, all I ask is for you reserve judgement on this issue until it's settled.
Thanks for your respect.
Tom
