They are a dozen time zones or so ahead of us, you know. Also, I'm pretty sure that means it shipped out. As far as I remember, it took about 10 days after getting to that status to arrive at my house. Your mileage may vary, of course, since I live in the western portion of the US and you live in the ??? portion.

By the way, you may need to sign for it when it arrives, so make sure someone's home to do so that week if you're not.

information recieved from my tracking number wrote:Destination - United States of America
The item (123tracking#321) left Hong Kong for its destination on 16-Apr-2009
Okay, so this could mean:

A. It left on the 16th (the future)
B. It will be here(america) on the 16th.
C. It will be here(mah house) on the 16th.

It left Hong Kong on the 16th.
I haven't been here in awhile, and looking back it's one of the worst ideas I ever had. I'm back and I'll be here for awhile, I was quite active 1 year ago and I hope to become that again.

It said the 16th yesterday, too. I just never looked at it closely. I'm thinking it will arrive in america on the !6t, and from there I will be issued an American tracking number.

I'm in SC, so more likely than not, they will land over in California, right? Unless Honk Kong lands on both sides of the coast.

Oh, and on thier site DX said it was shipped on the 9th.

I think its rather impossible for them to be 2 days ahead. On the 14th the following was present:

The item (123tracking#321) left Hong Kong for its destination on 16-Apr-2009

16 - 14 = 2

How do I add quotes as signatures?

Oh, yeah, you're turning 16, right? Please tell me you're getting your drivers' license soon; too many of the people I know on the internetz are 18+ and still don't have theirs. Laaaaame.

This also makes you just under a year older than me, interestingly enough.

I thought everyone wanted their license as soon as they turned 16, regardless of necessity or practicality... have I been misled all these years?

I totally want one, personally. You can't survive in Reno without one, in my experience.

Where I live, everything can be reached by bike in less than 20 minutes, even my job.

Also, just by HAVING the liscense, you have to pay like $200 a month for insurance. I say screw that, I will just buy awesome stuff/save the cash! :lol:
