Purolator said my package would be shipped via DHL in the US, but when it showed up it was delivered by UPS. It's very possible that DHL was supposed to deliver the package and then it was handed off to UPS in the midst of all this nonsense.
LOL!
The expressions in these pics are priceless!
I, for one, welcome our new evil robot overlord!

By the way I was so excited about getting my parts that I ended up building for a good chunk of yesterday when I should have been working. I’ll post a node and pics as soon as I get a chance today.

I bought a pair of those specs yesterday! I was supposed to be buying a glue gun, but the label on one side said works at 80W, and the one on the other said safe to 25W, so I thought I’d go somewhere else. But I did get a pair of safety specs (I got my Dremel a few days ago and ended up with a load of crud all over my office and some in my eyes - get an adult to help you kids!

I have only dealt with
I have only dealt with solarbotics once and the package was a day late - not their fault. I would definitely use them again.

I placed two orders. The one placed a couple days after the first, just arrived.
The first order I placed doesn’t even show up under “My recent orders” although I got the email confirmatin a couple seconds after I placed it.
Status on Paypal for that payment is pending as I just found out…not to amused about it.
Sent them an email today…hope will hear back soon, as I payed the stuff already!

No I’m from Canada. I wouldn’t mind longer shipping times. What gets me a bit upset is that the payment status in Paypal still is “pending” although I’ve sent the payment on Feb 24.

From my experience, if the payment is still “pending” there is a glitch in the system. You have to contact them showing a print screen image of the transaction from your Paypal account and urge them to process your order. Do not wait because they won’t detect it and it’s only your loss.
Btw, I’m glad you got my package in time. Thanks again for your order!
Yes that’s what I did.I’ve
Yes that’s what I did.
I’ve sent them an email with the screenshot on Friday evening. Hope they will reply and send it tomorrow.
Solarbotics replied this
Solarbotics replied this morning and the order went through smoothly this time. A second order I placed arrived 4 days after. Will keep ordering from Solarbotics.
