Grrrrrr.....
« on: May 23, 2017, 08:49:23 PM »
Had a good lead on a yellow (yeah I know right) couldn't get to where it was from my house until tomorrow. Offered the seller cash to hold onto it for me, told them I'll be driving at least 2 hours and all of the sudden they say it's sold. That's the third time this has happened with trying to buy more kettles. WTF!?!? Guess God keeps saying nope. Drowned my sorrows in some Breyers  Neapolitan ice cream and a quarter burnt pizza on the kettle (it was my first attempt).

@JEBIV   I sent a Glen Blue to Agent X via UPS. The grill made it to Palatine, IL then suddenly took off (got rerouted to California).  It went off the radar for  2 1/2 weeks.  UPS didn't know where it was and asked me to file a claim.  After a couple more days, it shows back up (on tracking) and leaves California heading back to its final destination of Elgin, IL.  From start to finish took almost a month. LOL

This actually happened to a VW engine of mine one time. It was suppose to take a 3 hour tour (ha ha) from my house to LA, CA. Lost track of it and it wound up in Utah 2 months later. Finally got it back and it was still going strong when i sold the car 2 years ago.

@JEBIV there's no consolation if it doesn't show up. Good luck!
