What do you do while a Spyderco is coming in the mail.

I go to work

It's times like that, when I remember the story of the papa bull and the baby bull.

The best things come to those who wait....just have to have the patience.

I'm just about losing my mind right now because not only do I have my Blue M390 Para 2 on its' way to me, but I also have an orange Manix 2, a ZT 0350 and 0200 on their way too. If all goes well, I should be getting knives everyday for the rest of the week. :p :D

I go to work

Best post ever. EV-ER.

1. Order another one.
2. Work thru some quantum physics equations.
3. Milk the cows.
4. Eat toast.

You could enjoy or at least busy yourself with one of the many other aspects of life.

I dream, drool, check the tracking number, look in my empty mailbox for the millionth time, dream, drool,...... :D

[jackknifeh]

I just keep checking the USPS tracking. In fact I just did that a minute ago. Not a knife though, just batteries I ordered.

USPS tracking sucks badly. Sometimes I get a message saying that tracking won't be updated for 3 days. At best, it updates several hours after each event. It seems better than it was, though.

Right now my Smurf is "Out for delivery".

[Jay_Ev]

I follow it's progress cross-country with the tracking number.

[Rwb1500]

what do I do? play with the one that arrived a few days earlier :p

I like to make sure the one I just got is sharp, so I can free the incoming knife from its packaging.

[Wisehybred]

I wait

[Evil D]

I do any thing i can to stop myself from thinking about it. Same thing i do when a knife is on back order and i can't order it (Yojimbo 2). Patience is a virtue, good things come to those who wait.

You are just spoiled. I remember when mail came by pony express.

If yours says "out for delivery" I bet your nose is against the glass door and the balls of your eyes are looking down the road for the pony. :D

Doesn't frequent refreshing of tracking make the package get there faster?

[skatenut]

I wait
and wait
and wait
....

10 - 14 days from the US unless it's one of the faster options.
And let's not forget customs, too, which may add a few days.

Waiting for international shipments is no fun! :D
