Hello Jamie,

I just completed a rather nice trade with Mr. Vassiliev and our traded
items arrived at their respective destinations within a day or two of each
other.

I do not know what could be the problem, however anything sent registered
may take much, much longer since registered mail must be handed off from
carrier to carrier, not just bundled with the regular mail. Sometimes it is
even batched with other registered stuff, then being delivered on time
intervals rather than on a set number of days post mailing.

Good luck.

Martin

Has anyone else had any problems w=
ith sending mail to Europe?  I recently won an ebay auction from Mr. Va=
ssiliev in the Czech Republic.  He was kind enough to send the meteorit=
e out even before receiving my payment. 
 
I sent him payment (check) a while=
back and he never got it, so I went ahead and sent another (this time regis=
tered) and he hasn't gotten this one either. 
 
Is this a problem with the US post=
al system or is it over there? 
 
Jamie
