Dr. Bloom, Im sure that you would be rushing to the Post Office to mail this stuff off Hastily wont you!!!! With this sort of thing I would wait until everything cleared and settled before mailing said bearings off. But Im sure you have the upperhand.
FYI I was just part of a "problem", if you remember my cry for help a while back about a motorcycle radiator. Took the "company" a month to mail it out.......and UPS never got a package.....go figure. I do have my money back now, but its been a month and a half of slow slow service. On the upside I found a whole motorcycle for the price of that radiator!
But back to Green things and scams.....I think Lagos is just a fuel tank away for a C-130 gun ship from out here.......maybe some low level straffing, and emptying of the 105mm ammo supply wouldnt be a bad thing. Coming home empty is always a good feeling, better gas mileage too!

Probably why our little friend in Legos is so curious about WHEN the product will ship. Last month my company was hit with dozens of credit card orders (over the web) from a guy in Legos using our website to check out if the credit card numbers were still good. Then, I am sure, he'd go to town on the thing! We've since implemented the CSC verification (the three
numbers on the back of the card) and that's stopped him cold. For those of you who don't know the CSC info is NOT supposed to be stored anywhere but the credit card issuing company. That way stolen credit card numbers, except in physical format (i.e. stolen wallet), won't have the CSC.
