If I had those radios with those fan; that are in your notes above.
I hire a cleaning person!
That is more than a little bit of dust that's "dirt" on those fans pictured.
No wonder the fans are failing.
A Flex-6700LE fan and loving it!
Did you get a chance to take the fan pics? Not a rush but just checking to make sure I didn't miss them.

I have recently received a handful of additional inquiries. If there is enough interest I will consider a second order. I will post details if and when warranted.
Thank you, and Happy Holidays everyone!

Update - I checked in with the manufacturer today, and due to the Chinese New Year, the shipment date has slipped a few weeks. The current estimated ship date is 3/12/19. I will update further once I have confirmation that they have shipped.
Thank you for your patience.

Finally, after a long delay, the entire shipment of fans arrived. The final delay was the 3-pin connector, which was on backorder, and held things up. The upside is the entire shipment is now here!.
My work schedule is a little crazy the next few weeks, traveling in and out of town, but I should be able to get most, it not all, orders shipped out by early next week. I will email everyone their tracking information once their package is ready for shipment.
Thank you for your patience!

Received.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Tracking information emails were sent to everyone this evening. I apologize for the delay in sending the notifications. As I mentioned previously, my work schedule has been very busy lately.
Since the fans took so long to arrive from the factory in China, the PayPal automated shipping links expired after 90 days. Therefore, I had to manually re-enter in everyone's shipping information, then print each label, and then manually email each person individually. Unfortunately, PayPal's multi-order-shipping system does not provide for email notifications during manual entries.
Most importantly, the packages were on their way first thing Monday morning.
Thank you again for everyone's participation!

I will not let your false claims go unanswered. You need to get your facts in order.
You were not ****. Your fans were delivered to the address sent with your PayPal payment, Yes, I do admit that I received your email weeks earlier to ship to an alternate address, but with the delay in receiving the shipment from the manufacturer, and the shear amount of packages I needed to get out in a rush between work travel, I inadvertently overlooked your earlier request, and shipped to the address provided via PayPal.
You emailed me one time when you received the tracking number, and your tone was quiet rude. I immediately replied to your email. You then replied one last time, stating that you felt like you were ****. That was the LAST of our correspondence. You never emailed me again, nor requested any info as per your claim above. If you did, I would have been happy to give you whatever info you felt was necessary.
Regardless, per your comment above, there is no "insurance application". Or "proof of value"'. The package was insured via priority mail, and the USPS knows this. The tracking shows the package was delivered to your address. I'm not sure what else they can do.
I have a hard time believing there was NO way for you to have a friend or family member retrieve your mail from your second address. You stated that there was "no way anyone could get it out of the mailbox". If this in fact true, then the package should be there when you return.
I have not heard a single word (or email) from you since this last email on 4/19. Never did I say you should just "accept your losses". One the contrary, you commented that if it weren't for the long delay, you would have filed a complaint with PayPal.
I could post our email correspondence here for all to see, but I will not step to that level, nor do i have time for such antics. For you to come here and make false accusations just shows your character, and only confirms what I saw from your last email of 4/19.
Plenty of hams have dealt with me over the years, and my character speaks for itself. I am not about to **** anyone for a few dollars.
The more I look at your email and posting, some things just don't add up with your story.

Also, once it was known that the item was going to be shipped to the wrong address. USPS allow a package redirect to a different address to be completed on their website. It is not free but it does work as I had to use it one time in the past with a shipment. The item had gotten as far as the local post office and it still got redirected.
