Shipping outside of EU... Check this out
In Response To: Re: Thanks for the info ()

My last shipment of the balance of the 39 plaques (Oostende 250.000Bef) left Belgium on a Tuesday, at which time someone in the system decided that since it is a Tuesday and the package is going to Florida, it should go in to the shipping container that all the Mororola components made in Belgium go in to.... After not arriving on schedule I phoned EVERYONE and a woman in the system told me what might have happened since it was on a Tuesday. I phoned Motorola here in Florida and told them what happend... and when I described the box size and the plaques they told me all the boxes in the shipping contained fit that description.. and the container takes 7 days to unload and the packages are only opened when production calls for them... and I explained how rare they were and will await whatever it takes to find the box.

Two hours later I get a phone call saying... "Whoever packed those blue 'plaques' did a poor job in doing so. The box busted open and we started seeing them on the bed of the shipping container as we were moving about. We found 39 units." Later that day MOTOROLA was at my front door... grin
