I cant wait to get my first Khuks... I ordered the 17.5" Sirupati DOTD from Friday 2/22, and paid right away at 4:10 PM Eastern, I got an Email from her that said : Done deal will ship today. Then on Monday 2/26 I emailed her about the Giant CAK that she had posted on Sunday DOTD 2/25 that was still available. We exchanged a few Emails, and made a deal. I paid her a few minutes later, and she replied: Done Deal will ship today with Sirupati... At that point, I was a little disappointed, as I expected to be receiving the Sirupati at any moment, seeing as how it was supposed to be shipped Friday, and with USPS Priority taking 2-3 days, I thought it would more than likely arrive on Tuesday. I emailed her as to why she had not shipped the Sirupati earlier, and she responded that something else came up, and both knives shipped together on Monday 2/26 UPS and gave me a tracking number. I checked it, and UPS as most of you know takes 5-6 WORKING days to get something from West coast (Reno) to East Coast (Miami)... No worries, she always kept good communication, and has been very very nice, and I KNOW that my 2 knives will arrive on Monday 3/3, its just that I WANT MY KHUKS!!!LOL... I was just a little surprised that she used UPS when all indications in Emails and from othe posters I have seen were that she used USPS. I personally detest UPS, as they have lost several packages of mine in the past, they dont count Saturday as a working day, and take a lot longer than USPS to ship. After this, I ordered the Village Tarwar from her last week before she went on vacation, and I paid her and she confirmed receipt of payment. I dont know if or how it was sent, so I can only assume it went out USPS before she went on vacation, as I did not receive any tracking number this time, nor have I received the Tarwar yet.
Overall, I have nothing but good things to say about her customer service and her courtesy. The unfortunate selection of UPS and other circumstances have stacked against me and have forstalled the receipt of my new toys!
I realize that 10 days is not long to wait to receive a knife shipment, and only makes me jealous of some of you that get your khuks in 2 days!
Anyways, was bored this morning, and just thought I would post my experiences so far.
I will post next week when I receive them.
