Hm. I had a UPS package from WA scheduled to be delivered today, then this morning I got a notice it's been rescheduled to next Thursday. Tracking says it's in WA still, but UPS is mysterious when it cromes to transcontinental deliveries.

From across the pond my perspective is a bit different: I am still flabbergasted every time how quick and reliable my packages arrive (and I love to watch the journey of my packages across the States and then to Europe)! Usually, when I order by Monday I receive my stuff on Friday. Ok, I have to pay a lot more but the service so far has been really extremly reliable from both the TB shipping crew and UPS. Thumbs up!Last edited by bartleby; 03-01-2019, 12:51 PM....spread joy in your neighbourhood (and not Corona!)

My recent order with Ghost Whale pouches, a ballistic PCSB, and a couple other things would have been delivered today, I think. I'm out of town til Sunday, so I had UPS put a hold on it and deliver Monday the 11th, but I am not handling the waiting well at all.

Mine just arrived! Now I have some Ghost Whale pouches for my sweetie, and a new-style PCSB (in Viridian!) so I can see what the changes are like. (And so I can have one in Viridian.)Originally posted by tress29 View PostI have a bunch of great bags. Favorite color combos include Aubergine/Island, Navy/Solar, Forest/UV, Original Halcyon/Wasabi, Cloud/Viridian... and now also Seapine/UV!
I've fulfilled my dream of palindromic-colored nested bags! Navy/Ultraviolet Pilot with Aubergine/Island Side Effect inside: blue purple purple blue. Forest/UV A45 with Aubergine/Wasabi Co-Pilot inside: green purple purple green.Comment

I ordered a cubelet in Alphaviolet, because I don't have anything in that color and I don't have a cubelet either! My new Co-Pilot is in there though, and that's what I'm excited for.Originally posted by aedifica View PostComment

I spend way too much time trolling the forums. Partly because I leave for a trip tomorrow and I have no brain cells available with which to do work, and partly because now that I have packed my A30 I have a Tom Bihn order that I am itching to place but must wait. Something about a trip in March eating away my vacation pay and savings and having to space out the major purchases by at least six months... I'm ignoring the bank account and trolling forums for pictures to show me all of the other things I didn't know I wanted to buy...Comment

I can identify with this - stay strong! As much as we joke about enabling and buying all the bags, every one of us needs to be mindful of our finances...Originally posted by ClicketySnap View Post
If it's any consolation, I've actually determined after much Forum reading what bags & bits that I *don't* need/can't find a use for
so I'm a lot more aware of which bits I really do want to budget for...
So where are you going tomorrow?“...Horace was the only cheese that would eat mice and, if you didn't nail him down, other cheeses as well"

I TOTALLY agree with that! I was so determined for a long time that when I was ready to replace my laptop I would be getting a MCB to put it in... but now that I have my SK and have seen other forum members pics of the MCB, I have realized that I would be very frustrated with the lack of a zippered closure. I have moved on to wanting a more efficient bag for bag-in-bag and weekend packing when the A30 is a bit much so I'm drooling over a Pop Tote instead...
Tomorrow I head to Calgary to see my partner very briefly before flying to Washington DC! My dad picked it. One week with my parents, and then they're heading to Europe for a river cruise (they're as obsessed with Viking as I am with Tom Bihn bags and camera lenses) and I have another week in DC by myself.Comment

I'm trolling way too much too, but since I'm far away it's easier to not purchase everythingOriginally posted by ClicketySnap View Post

I can be silent no longer....
*pedant warning*
Several people on this thread and others have said they were 'trolling' the forums.
Internet trolls are horrible people who set out to sow discord for their own pathetic amusement. This is 'trolling'.
I am sure you are all lovely people who have been TRAWLING the forums for information [emoji226][emoji226][emoji226]

Gotta love it when your teenager arrives home, finds the much anticipated Tom Bihn box, and FaceTimes you at work so you can see your new goodies!Comment

You're absolutely right! I think a kid that good deserves a nice reward... maybe a TB product? Guess you'll just have to place ANOTHER order...Originally posted by tuskegee7294 View PostComment
