I don’t believe that for a minute
Mine was originally showing Monday (today), same as the last one. After is sat in Sligo for the entire weekend, UPS just updated it to Wednesday 6/16. I got a 'departed Sligo' scan a little while ago, and expecting to see a Dublin scan in the "fullness of time". Lovely and laid-back on the Emerald Isle it is.

Finglas it 'tis now.

Congrats on your new Amicus. I've been looking out for a used one here on the AGF, as well as Reverb, Craigslist, etc. May have to break down and order one, as they don't come available often.

I’m looking forward to getting my hands on it! Theoretically, it will be here on Thursday. I keep going back to the shipping video to admire it from afar for about 2 minutes

I gather the instrument did not make the 17th. that's what happens when you don't believe. I've sort of reached the point where I believe it when I see it.

But, it all be good when it arrives and I believe that the wait will have been worth it.

So, are you saying that a guitar delivery time is like Santa Claus? If you don't believe, it won't come to your house?

If it does actually arrive on Thursday, it’s still 2 days short of 2 months from order to receipt. I’m quite happy with that.

It was collected from Cavanacaw on Monday, slumbered in Sligo until a few hours ago, and now is furloughed in Finglas, waiting to be dispatched from Dublin to its next layover.

Holy Moly! I believe that that's a far distance. I understand that patience is a virtue.
