Treasure is Found

Well Folks,

I finally received my copy of David Bowers, American Coin Treasures and Hoards, today. As some of you may recall, this coveted, by me at least, treasury of numismatic history had been cruelly ripped, OK a little bit to melodramatic, had been lost by the Post office almost a month ago. Here is the sequence of events:

04 April - Mailman leaves Delivery Notice at front screen door.

07 April - Attempt to pick up, package cannot be found

Promised callback, no callback.

10 April - Attempt to pick up, package cannot be found

Promised callback, no callback.

10 April - Go to USPS website and file complaint.

Request callback, no callback.

17 April - Receive request from USPS to evaluate their service on my 10 April complaint. I excoriate them for complete lack of response.

27 April - Mailman leaves delivery notice in mailbox.

28 April - Yay, my copy of Mr. Bowers' book finally arrives.

Who knows what kind of journey it must have taken. So weird and never a peep out of the Post Office. Oh well, my library is complete!!!! Until the next interesting volume appears.

Hope all your Numismatic pursuits are going well, I am a very happy camper.
