So, last Jan 18th I was ordering some junk from Jeff's Corporate Behemoth and I impulse-buy a small jar of Tamiya flat yellow acrylic paint. No big deal, I'm in for all of 7 dollars including shipping. My other stuff shows up on time but- no paint.
At this point I can't cancel the order.
I check the order status and its status is "shipped" by "Wali Global Freight Services". Oh great, here we go.
Everything points to a point of origin in either Taiwan or the Mainland, which is something I try to avoid on small orders. I would rather not be the source of some international incident in the Pacific involving a box of pencils or mini staples, if you know what I mean.
Meanwhile, someone, somewhere is tracking my 1/3 oz. jar of paint as it travels halfway around the planet, because that's what you do..
I get e-mail updates from "on time" to "still on time" to "please fill out this feedback form" to "gosh, we're sorry" and it finally shows up today.
At this point, I don't even know why I ordered it. That was Me from an earlier time, I had different wants and desires.
