Yes, you have to sign for it.

Thank you sir!

Number 3 should be out for delivery today, but no one will be home to sign for it, drats!

I got a package notification from the mail room yesterday... it could be a pipe... it could be a round of new dress shirts for work... hopefully I can get there after work to find out

Mine took a while to get through Chicago last year. I'm not surprised it is taking a while again this year.

#13 in the house!

And in its new home, with my other briars.

#30 seems to have moved out of customs in Chicago, Hope is restored.

#2 has crossed the Red River and landed in Dallas. Here's hoping it's already headed south on I-45.

#11! Super sweet.

So the USPS attempted to deliver yesterday, no one home, left a notice to sign, I thought they would have attempted re-delivery today, I left the signed notice in our mail box (200 yds from the house) , we were home, they took the signed notice from the roadside mail box, but didn't deliver it, what the heck?

@nortac It probably was still at the post office. They don't do the "three attempts" routine, anymore. They make one attempt, and then you elect how you want to handle it. Many folks (including yours truly) takes that notice to the post office to just pick it up. I'd rather not show up and have them tell me it was back on another truck.

You signed the slip and put it back, so they know to redeliver (and should do so without requiring further signature).

Yet another update from #30, although no assurance it has left Chicago. But, it is moving within the system and is on track to be delivered. What track, I do not know.
"October 11, 2018
In Transit to Next Facility
Your package is moving within the USPS network and is on track to be delivered to its final destination. It is currently in transit to the next facility."

Maybe they're taking turns smoking it? I'll know for certain when it finally arrives.

I was able to pass by the post office and pick it up, so #3 is secured! Pics to follow!

This is the same status as #21. I think some postal workers in Chicago are members of a pipe club and they're doing a passaround .

#3 Best of both worlds, Cumberland acrylic and ebonite stems with an awesome blast!

Hey that's like buying a suit with two pairs of pants.

You betcha!

Correction, Paul informs me that both of my stems are ebonite, even better!

#1 arrived yesterday! I knew that the quality of these pipes would be stellar, but the grain and blast on all of these have been outstanding! Amazing work, Paul @HUB-ART ! Thank you!
