in all the confusion look what got left for me

Post by treehugger »

so with last minuet decision on get my nephew hooked up for christmas the original plan was to go nitro ,being loud and alot of fun, but due to hugging tree,s running deep in my family Perran insisted on clean green .
so even though the box was throw over the gate in my yard splitting the rapping, it cant detract the feeling of wow what fun this thing is RTR and came with another 10T chassis and stealth :D

im going to LHS this after noon to get some fuel and lets make some noise

Nice 8) Good to see another gt guy around. Don't you love the way the delivery services treat our little treasures :lol: . Got a trx1 from markt311 and the guy literally threw it from the driveway up to the porch by the door :roll: . Well anyway, can't wait to see updates on this one.

So the USPS allows packages that are wrapped in that brown paper? I know UPS doesn't.

they wont take box,s with any writing on them :roll: so i grab a bunch of the free usps box's and then rap them in brown paper bags from the store . i hinted to the woman behind the counter one-day about is it allowed ? And she clammed up like the post master general was standing besides her and said " i can always spot them " you got to laugh that's what i ship alot of stuff in plus the trusty shoe box but t always get the brown bag treatment

Hey if it works and they accept it what the heck right?

I wrapped a package in brown shipping paper once and brought it to UPS and they had a fit. They said they don't accept wrapped packages as it gets ripped off way too easily. I said with the way they handled packages I bet. :lol:
