I sold a Camera and Lens & accessories last week, and shipped it out
right away. It moved fast through the system, but is now in Queens, NY.
I'm sure that is a large Post Office distribution center, but at the

The other day eBay messaged me about $1.75 that was charged for
insufficient postage on a parcel. It wasn't worded like that, but that

degree. I carried that whole kit in a trip through the backcountry in
the Grand Tetons along with a tripod. My back still hurts just thinking
about it.It's sort of like 33RPM vinyl r...
So I received positive feedback for this today. Evidently the buyer is
