    Shipping a package is not easy these days. :rolleyes:

    The announcement from Darkstarr made it sound like our fault:
    "These boxes represent the goods we need to fulfill phase 2 of shipping to backers who missed the first round of shipping"

    I hope they manage proper parcel tracking for the second wave, when ever that will be.

    You would be surprised. Even if you and I can scream at each other in 4k real time from one side of the world to the other thanks to tech magic, shipping is a different beast. Most post and parcel services around the world like to pretend we are still in stone age and handle stuff exactly like that.

    Still think it's strange. I pledged to Edelman on 2014-04-05 04:49:06. paid for International Shipping 2014-04-05 04:49:06
    Did filling the Shipping Address when it opened. Checked it every time i got a mail to check it.
    And still i don't get a mail that something did go wrong on there side.
    Think it's strange that they are selling signed boxses even if backers still havn't gotten theyre stuff

    What I find frustrating is that the problem for most backers was due to the fact Port had a bug in their credit card payment processing system that continually reset people's addresses, a bug that they knew about not for a week or two, but for years. At the least they could have had a big red flashing warning every time you purchased something from the addon store and used a credit card to warn you that you needed to go and re-confirm your address to ensure you would get your goods.

    It's actually quite difficult to check an excel spreadsheet and ensure all the fields are filled in correctly, but then again who needs a quality assurance process! /sarcasm off and still no boxed item *sigh*

    My current delivery date expectation is based on Brexit to be fully ratified & implemented, there to be a blockade at Calais, a quick hop over the channel then our fine British workforce to be on strike in Dover, the final mile delivery to be carried out by Steptoe & Son on their trusty pony & cart a la 1960's style after it first gets re-directed back from Scotland via Wales as it heads to my postbox, oh and as a final insult, receiving a 'you weren't in to sign for it' card from Royal Mail and a 20mile round trip to one of the few post offices still open! ;)
