My SV-51 just shipped but here's something strange for ya.
I pre-ordered the SV-51 as soon as it was offered which was, what, six months ago? I chose EMS for the shipping method, because with an item this valuable, I want to be able to track its voyage around the globe. Last month I ordered the Miyatake Design Works book and chose SAL shipping. To my surprise, HLJ combined the items and sent them out using SAL. This is the first time HLJ has combined a shipment with my orders and I appreciate them combining the orders, but I'm not sure I'm happy with their choice of shipping method. With SAL, the package might slip through customs undetected so it might turn out to be a little cheaper, but as I said, with a package this valuable I want to be able to track it. Let's hope it doesnt take six weeks to get here.
