Luke Is Shipping!!!

[Wor-Gar]

Nope. Nothing has happened since they discovered him in L.A. Saturday night. I called Saturday and they told me that they would reroute him, but not until Tuesday, and that he would be delivered on Wednesday or Thursday. But at least they know where he is now...

Well, good news then. Sort of. Sorry you had to wait so long.

But, in a bizarre way, I kinda had more fun during the anticipation. Now its over, I have him, and I'm eager for the next pre-order or Anakin's delivery. Yes, never satisfied.

I know the feeling Wor-Gar... now that I have Luke.. My attention is immediately drawn to Anakin, or the next preorder.

But everytime I walk into my living room I have to tinker with Luke some more.. I end up changing his costume every day now....lol

Well now that you know where he is I guess I can quote Short-Round

"Too funny, Indiana!

The back of the bus comes through. Just got my pre-shipment notice from FedEx. Luke is scheduled to be here on Wednesday! Can't wait

 

[Agent0028]

Damn, I must be on the wrong bus.

 

[Darth Madden]

Damn, I must be on the wrong bus.

I've been run over by the bus.

I'm not even at the bus station.

I can't believe it!! Fedex has done it again!! Now my Luke has been taken from L.A., driven within ten minutes of my house, through the Fresno facility, and straight on up the valley--and he just checked in to Sacramento, three hours north of me. I honestly don't understand what is so difficult about delivering a simple package!!!!! This has really become a big joke!!! I can understand one mistake, but this is now the third incorrect city that my package has been taken to. I almost don't want the stupid thing any more...

I have seen Fedex do some dumb things, but this is just ridiculous! Now they will try to deliver it tomorrow in Sacramento, realize it's in the wrong town, and send it back to L.A. for yet another try. I may never get this figure...

 

[Batty]

Sorry, Tom. I've had problems with FedEx in the past, but nothing like that. That's beyond ridiculous. Maybe if you send up a flare they'll be able to get it to you. Don't give up!

 

[tomandshell]

You guys are going to hear on the news tomorrow about a crazy guy in California who built a giant barricade on I-5 and wouldn't allow any Fedex trucks to go by without having all of their packages inspected. He will have a wild look in his eyes and will be muttering, "Luke... Luke... Luke..." When you hear about this crazy guy, try not to judge him too harshly...

 

[Batty]

Please make sure the "crazy guy" is wearing a shirt. He should at least look good on TV.

This is INSANE! I'm feeling frustrated just keeping track of YOUR Luke. I can't imagine the frustration you're going through right now. But its gonna make a great story one day.

In fact, since Sideshow is asking for people to email them with their Luke story, I think yours is definitely one they should hear. Maybe they'll send you another one.

 

[bluesparrow]

tomandhsell, I remember fed ex being incredibly awful in the LA area when I lived there. My sympathies.


(I'm still waiting for BBTS to ship my Luke).

 

[Alice Adrenochrome]

I thought Fed-Ex where pro's... but this is more like amateurs. Can you belive that you have to pay for this kinda service?

If it's any consolation to those having delivery problems in the US here's a story of a f'd up delivery. Last year I ordered a Bossk mini bust from a store in the US only to have it arrive in the UK (where I live) and have some tool at Royal Mail reroute the figure to CANADA . After much chasing up,the mini bust finally reached me in the Midlands after stopping off in Belfast, Ireland on the way. As anyone can see from looking at a map,both Canada and Belfast are quite some distance from the UK Midlands but it would appear Royal Mail aren't strong on geography. I hope that when the EU gets their shipment of Luke there's no problems as Royal Mail also have a history of losing packages (usually mine) and employing postmen that steal mail,(A guy was recently discovered to have stolen over 5,000 packages most of which were found in his house) With the Sideshow Luke being obvious ebay fodder it's fair to say I'll be glad when I get the figure in my hands.
