Ordered some prints last month from a vendor. The tracking system is still saying "In Transit". This weekend will be a full 3 weeks that the order has sat in Sydney. I think it's a fair guess to say the package was probably randomly opened and confiscated. Will be asking the vendor if they are able to resend if I pay for the postage. Also ordered from another reputable vendor, that order shipped 5 days ago. I hope this one has more luck.

Thanks bod, I did order prints. I picked up the phone and called the vendor and after checking the USPS tracking the nice lady agreed it doesn't look good, but to give it another week just in case. She said that my suggestion to pay for better postage if the prints were to be resent is a fair idea and that it shouldn't be a problem.

Hahahaha, gee I wasn't expecting that one. Paul Hogan aka Mick 'Crocodile' Dundee was one of Australia's favourite comedians in the 70's, his comedy shows were very popular and anticipated, then he sort of dropped off the radar before coming back in the late 80's with Crocodile Dundee. That seems such a long time ago now, pre internet, the Northern Territory was and still is a bit of an unknown to many Aussies, so yes the movie was very popular as it wasn't a bad story with some great support actors like John Melling and Ernie Dingo. I'd imagine a large majority of people my age(over 50) have great memories of Hoges, his brand of humour, and the buffalo whispering, knife wielding Mick Dundee. These days that brand of 'ocker' humour is a bit outdated and stale. American Joe? I have no idea sorry.

Rang the first vendor, offered to pay for postage, they were great to deal with and are resending. Hope it turns up.

Maybe try ordering a couple (no, I can't recommend anyone) One spore print is all you need... if you don't fuck anything up, just sayin Cubensis will be in cow shit come summer so printing your own and cleaning things up in a dish should be something you need to master anyway I think it's easier to grow the mycelium from tissue meself... South of Perth is dairy country yeah?
