January 26, 201016 yr Also, I know that the polite & proper thing to do at the moment is to ask “the” status your item; :anxious: but I figure that you’re probably sick & tired of the situation not to mention hearing that question, so I'm going to refrain. Just know that I'm sending good thoughts both your way & down to the land of Oz to "Rick " while he waits for his bass. :kiss: Oh, I don't mind. It is currently on "Clearance Delay" with DHL for the second day in a row, so it is still across the pond. If the status doesn't change by Wednesday morning, I'm going to give them a call to get a more detailed description of the hold-up. Although the situation is slightly annoying, it is peanuts compared to my issues with PayPal; I'm STILL miffed about that. :dozey: On the bright side, at least I received my AROBTTH stamps yesterday... I posted some pics in the stamps thread.
January 26, 201016 yr I got my stamps too!! :dance: They're beautiful! Today's mail also included a surprise: a lovely mailer from the Royal Mail explaining the differences among their stamp collections, plus the dates of the other limited releases this year. I love unexpected surprises, especially via good, old fashioned snail mail. :happy2: PayPal: Yes, I can understand your frustration. :veryangry2: I'm right there with you, though I didn't go nearly as far up the chain of command like you did (probably because you already did so and got nowhere!). After jumping through all the hoops to get verified, submitting everything but my bloodtype and a retinal scan to PayPal and end up not paying with it due to fine print, I figured I'd better use it for something. So, I ended up running my Hope for Haiti donation through it and now I don't feel like I wasted time on a worthless effort. :laugh2: It's going to take about 1,000,0001 more Hope for Haiti experiences for me to think that PayPal isn't the :devil: devil incarnate :devil:; though for you, I'm guessing it's about ten times that and then some!
January 26, 201016 yr After a long time in my life today i am feeling so happy and yelling out loudly with happiness inside my home as i got my "dream" autographed Don't Panic lithograph i won in this incredible auction which's (my love) for ever.It arrived just now and its the most gorgeous thing i've ever seen. Here are the pictures: Sorry if i described my happiness a bit intensely.
January 26, 201016 yr Congratulations on recieving your lithograph Pallavi. You're very lucky as well as the others who got Coldplay memorabilia as well. :D

Here are the pictures: Sorry if i described my happiness a bit intensely. SWEET!!!! I'm assuming because of the various items on the edges that it was shipped in a tube? I'm still waiting for mine to arrive....
January 26, 201016 yr That's awesome Pallavi! It's nice to see that Guy signed his signature a little more legibly than he did with some of the certificates of authenticity posted earlier... :tongue:
January 27, 201016 yr I am suffering from Clearout Sale withdrawal :freak: It has been a bit quiet in here :dozey: After a long time in my life today i am feeling so happy and yelling out loudly with happiness inside my home as i got my "dream" autographed Don't Panic lithograph i won in this incredible auction which's (my love) for ever.It arrived just now and its the most gorgeous thing i've ever seen.

January 27, 201016 yr Did Lo&loud have some goodies he hasn't shared with us yet or did I miss something? I'm hoping my guitar will arrive today I'll try and post some pictures as soon as I can. He posted pics of Chris' guitar and Will's 'Talk' drum. I don't believe the piano or SS outfit have had that treatment yet, although we did get to see the packaging from their travels on the Tube!

I don't believe the piano or SS outfit have had that treatment yet, although we did get to see the packaging from their travels on the Tube! I believe he is in the process of setting up everything in the proper manner, but will eventually post pics of the other items when they are ready. On a side note, I called DHL directly since the status was posted as "Clearance Delay" in the U.K. for the past 3 days. I received a phone response indicating they are looking into it further, and if the status doesn't change and/or they don't call me back by Friday afternoon, then I should call them back. :dozey: Fa la la la la. I don't know what else to say here.
January 28, 201016 yr Was told I would get a tracking number 4 days ago.. still waiting. (This was my 42nd post)
January 28, 201016 yr Was told I would get a tracking number 4 days ago.. still waiting. (This was my 42nd post) Nice. (Can you detect my sarcasm here?) Well, nice about the 42nd post, but not nice about the tracking number issue. Today it has officially been a month since the first day of the auctions ended. Another day passed, and still waiting for the DHL status to change...
January 28, 201016 yr Thank you to everyone who posted their pictures. I received Jonny's X & Y platinum discs today. I haven't posted pictures before but hopefully this will work. It was a long time getting it but it was exciting to actually have a personal memento.

I don't know what else to say here. Well, I just received another call from DHL; apparently it is being held up because they are waiting for additional paperwork from the shipper (I'm assuming that would be KidsCo). But I'll keep you all updated and post pics when it arrives, which hopefully will be next week... :bomb:
