... no, not sexy lingerie like you'd been hoping, but my Dropkick Murphys Shipping Up To Boston tee. Yes, the shifty Ebay seller finally came through for me and sent it (see previous blog entries in this thrilling series). So I'm wearing it right this minute, in, er, celebration.
He also sent me a DM dogtag chain and a DM Blackout patch as bonuses for being patient and not giving him negative feedback. That's right, I actually gave him positive feedback in the end, even after waiting nearly a month for delivery, let alone contact. Though I was honest in the star ratings and said very slow delivery and poor communication. Still, everyone deserves a second chance.
So that's the lesson, then, is it? No, not really. Good things come to those who wait? Maybe. Patience is a virtue? No. Nice guys finish last.
Hope you enjoyed the Shifty ebayer Trilogy.
Still waiting for those Pearl Jam CDs from Canada, mind...
