We complain about the United States Postal Service, but take a look at the beating this envelope received while in the hands of the United Parcel Service. And what was in it you ask? My recent Irish Seahorse purchase. Fortunately, the dealer had it carefully cocooned in protective wrappings. The envelope looks like it was run over by a truck, doesn’t it? When I saw the envelope, I almost fainted! Scared the bejeebers out of me! Sheesh!
I asked the dealer to try one of the courier services because of all the recent USPS problems. Not much of an improvement at all. And their customs people were flummoxed by the description “Irish document”. Poor Padraig was tied up on the phone for an hour with these folks. I told the poor guy to go have a beer and put it on my tab lol! By the way, one of the Eire Philatelic Association officers was talking with the dealer while he was in Ireland. He kindly offered to hand carry it across the pond. Nice guy!
