Ahhh - you opted for that "Free" shipping :) :)

Delayed at sort facility for some reason (lost?).

LOL! it must have gone by donkey,

It is 14 miles from springfield to kearny, and it
took 14 days to get there......

I know they are trying to save money , but.....

(Worth the wait tho, Herbrand made a nice well tempered hammer)

The hammer did arrive today! It is as advertised in the Ebay ad, and I am proud to have it.
