I ordered my CGBATAC with green blade and SS slabs on May 2. I got dinged on May 18. Man, that's about as close to two weeks as you can get.

No pics as it hasn't yet arrived. I bet those wonderful gentlemen at customs ;) are just making sure that it isn't a gravity knife or switchblade.

What are your records for lag between orders from the site (not Company Store) and credit card dings? Who has the longest? The shortest?
 
Ordered my (first) BATAC mid FEB, CC hit end of APR, arrived early MAY. Longest wait would be for an LE ordered end of JAN when they first appeared as they will be the last to ship, IIRC.
 
Bet that thing shows up today!

I'm sticken around a few to see if my FFBM shows up this morning.
 
We only get mail on Monday and Thursday. So, I think there is a strong chance that it arrives tomorrow.

And I thought I lived in the boonies:eek: :eek:

Think you'll like it, I got the same combo and love it!!!
 
Ok, I have to know...where do you live that you only get mail twice a week???
 
I live in Chard, Alberta, Canada. It's near the Hamlet of Janvier (pop. 600), a First Nation/Metis settlement. It's a little farther north than the southern tip of the Alaskan Panhandle.

Our postmistress is tempermental. She will not accept mail, only deliver it to the PO boxes at the local store. She isn't especially competent, diligent, or literate. More than once she has ignored "Collect Duty" stickers on my packages, and just given them to me because it is less paperwork. God bless her.

I'm moving to High Prairie, a thriving metropolis of 2700. I hear that they get mail a little more often. I might have to pay all those nasty taxes and duties, though.
 
I got a little card in the mail today. It says that my package is waiting for me at the post office 130km away. It has been bouncing back and forth from the city to the hamlet for three weeks now. The local postmistress has sent it back to town three times because she won't accept the $21 I owe for duty and handling.
