: : : : Just placed my order with Peter. He's looking into negotiating a better basic delivery program with ParcelForce. He's hoping it will only run Ł25 ($41) vs Ł15 ($25), but will provide faster delivery and better tracking. He also said they are trying to get to revamping the web site to display more of their offerings. Look for his A2's in Steven Speilberg's new series on WWII.

: : : : Cheers!

: : : How much faster, I might have to change my order around slightly....

: : He hasn't negotiated the deal yet, so changing your order may be premature. You can get DataPost service, which runs Ł30 ($50). That's what I've asked for. The jacket will make it from Wested to Seattle in 4 business days.

: Well I'll ask'im if it can be arranged, because St. Louis is closer to England than Seattle...but I doubt that that makes any difference. All and all it'll get here somehow. I hope you like your new jacket!

One thing on the DataPost service: Apparently everything coming into the US from the UK via DataPost comes into Dallas overnight. Once there it is expedited through customs in 2 days. Once out of customs, it is treated as Priority Overnight for the lower 48. So, as far as Seattle vs. St. Louis, vs. New York, they're all the same.

Thanks for the sentiment on the new jacket - I can't wait!

Cheers!
