Mine finally left Bridgeport and arrived in Capitol Heights, MD. Maybe I'll have it Saturday but my guess is Tuesday; a full week after it was supposed to be delivered.
10C, PLEASE STOP USING MAIL INNOVATIONS!! THERE IS NOTHING INNOVATIVE ABOUT THIS!!Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
I'll never understand how I can ship an album across the entire country using Priority Mail with the cost of shipping and materials STILL being less than what 10C charges. And that's consumer level shipping cost. My recipient gets their record in no more than 3 days from the time I drop it off at the post office. Hell, I once shipped a record to Arizona using media mail and it arrived in 4 days!Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

Here's a good laugh for you. I just got an update from 10c. The two albums that I ordered together, on the same day back in May, on the very first day of sale and within a few minutes of being announced are shipped separately. Yield is arriving on Saturday. No Code will be arriving, well, whenever UPS picks it up and updates it.
I ordered them at the exact same time. I'm thinking that two items coming from the exact same warehouse could have been packaged together, saving cost and being a bit more environmental.2014: Cincinnati

I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.0 -
I admit that I didn't realize that they were shipping separate. (Hadn't read the other thread in a while.) It kind of confuses me why they would all ship separately, but then I think most of us have that same thought.2014: Cincinnati

I got a chuckle out of this. At the bottom of the shipping notification there is this gem:
"Fine Print: *Your mileage may vary."0 -
Yield is at my local post office as of 6:17am this morning so I should have it today or tomorrow.
