Deeply UP-Set !!!


Max's birthday is close to Labor Day. He's been a friend of ours for many years, I written and posted pictures of them when they've stayed with us. His present was to be an old German Picklehaube --- spiked helmet. It arrived today two weeks late.


DAMAGED Normally I would not get so G D Angry but it was the last one in their inventory and took SiXXX weeks to get here. Bent, Dented, Broken !



The IDIOTS shipped in a plastic bag with a little bubble wrap! WHY it was not shipped in a box marked FRAGILE !

 Poor packaging can result in a lot of damage because shipping companies toss packages around like footballs.

Was a fairly nice day here, mix sun/cloud, the odd spritz of rain, 64F. Going to hit 74F tomorrow.

I had a bbq burger and 2 small baked spuds for dinner. Double chocolate fudge cookies for dessert. I am dog tired after running several errands in the city and seeing the specialist Dr. I am now on a cortical steroid anti fungal creme medication to treat a suspected extreme case of dermatitis. I have a followup appointment in two weeks when a biopsy sample will be taken to check for other complications.

I can't imagine a pricey item such as this just getting tossed in a plastic bag with some flimsy bubblewrap! IDIOTS!

I am getting around better in my "Bubble wrap" ankle brace able to put a little weight on my foot to balance so I am getting more things done here but totally poohed out by the end of the day.

The seller has made an offer... I/we can repair the Prussian Helmet in the shop.... Just a major annoyance. I'll let Max know about the B-day wish when they come out over Labor Day. Nice to see you had a moment for Blogs.

 That's really stupid the seller should offer a refund keep it or send another one when they get more in. If the seller won't do anything then it's definitely a negative feedback, and then eBay could get involved hopefully with some action against the seller but I doubt it

EEbay got involved... the seller made a good refund, however, it was the last one they had. JD and I think we can fit it in the shop with the press and an iron bar.... Just have to see.
