It's probably a pre-emptive strike

They've probably received about 100 phoen calls today, and figured they'd call everyone

i wonder how many items these guys process a day. Is the stack of badger brushes significant in comparison to the other things that they are inspecting? anyone know?

I too received a voice mail from FedEx informing me that the F&W cleared the package and I should receive the package Monday.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if you have to be home to recieve this package from FedEx or will they just leave it on your door step? I might be out of town and even though I WANT to wait gleefully for the FedEx man to arrive, I may not be able to.

What have they done with everyone elses brushes?

Thanks

MINE IS HERE! I went to FedEX to pick it up this morning and although they were supposed to open at 9:00 a.m., they weren't open at 9:05 so I left. I ran home to get my Vulfix (to send back to Vulfix due to hair loss) and at 9:15 my brush arrived. It really is a work of art. Beautiful. I couldn't wait to see how it lathered so I tried it out on a tub QED of lavender. This brush seems to be a perfect match for this type of soap. Rich, creamy lather, without any water to soap problems. I can't wait to see how it works with the creams.

Art,
SWMBO had to sign for it in my absence, but that's in Oklahoma. I do not know if that is a universal procedure or just for International EXPRESS (Hah!) shipments...

My FedEx package was delivered to my apartment complex office because I was not home. Maybe you could put a note asking for it to be left with a neighbor. Several years ago FedEx delivered a portable CD player, and left it on my doorstep. Well, I live in an apartment and got home about 7 hours after it was left. Of course, we never saw it. I contacted Overstock.com, and they shipped out another one, but for the next two months, the FedEx delivery guy called asking if the original had ever turned up. I wonder if he had to pay for it?

UPS used to whack their drivers' pay if they left a "Signature Required" package without gaining a signature...

My wife is in possession of the brush! Mission accomplished!

(The people in her work gave her all sorts of looks, the box is covered in all sorts of stickers from fish and wildlife)

The description on my paperwork was "Shaving and razor items". I have no idea why that would draw the attention of the F&W Dept.

Delivery!

FedEx came at 8:30 this morning so SWMBO was there to sign for it.

I might have to leave work early today....

My wife called me to ask if it's safe to bring the brush inside the house, because of all the F & W stickers on the package
