based on attitude anyway

Um, who's got the attitude here? It amazes me that you decide to bump your own thread by insulting 1/2 of this board's membership based on where they live and the other 1/2 of this board's membership based on their friendship w. the prior.

And if you can get your money faster than the time you've spent dragging your own thread through the mud (via PayPal or International Money-Order), what differance would it make to you if it took 8 weeks to get to someone's doorstep?

For the record, I've gotten goods shipped faster to me from empeg in the UK than I have from PC companies located in California.
