  1. Gotta love an eBay listing where it says it ships from New Jersey, but turns out it's going to sit for a long while with a USPS tracking number assigned where it is waiting on the "partner" shipping company to hand-off the package.

    Said partner company is "Slow Sheep GDE" (with GDE meaning Global Direct Entry - i.e. import). Given the item I purchased is a Chinese product, I assume it is a Chinese shipping company that facilitates these shipping shenanigans.

    It was a good price on the item, I just wish they'd be more transparent about where it's really shipping from.

    "Slow Sheep" is a _fantastic_ name for a shipping company, by the way.
