My shaper was shipped at 8:05 p.m. e.s.t.
The seller and the trucker had one heck of a time arranging their schedules where they were both available at the same time.
It is a testament to the seller that he put up with all of this for so long and didn't give up with all of the problems that went before. All of that for very little money, too.
I had a similar issue with my shipment of Surface grinders from the west coast. Took a week or so to pick up - then there was another issue - another pickup then where were they - one by train another by truck. Train got here first - the truck unit was expedited by the truck company - but the local 'jerk...' truck station manager charged me for expedite and for special (over and above) fuel.... hasmat and whatever he could. I turned him in to claims, but never got a dime back.
Good luck with yours! - be on top of it.

Well did you get it? Pictures?

Yes, I got it or what I think is it. "It" arrived today in the middle of a 'frog-strangler' and the trucker put a tarp on it for protection. I only saw a very tiny glimpse of it and it is now sitting on my trailer waiting for the deluge to quit so that I can transport 'it' to my building.
I am a grown man yet, I feel like I am waiting for Christmas to arrive to see the package.
It seems to be very heavy (understatement). I am curious as to how my wife will get it in the building.
