I'm pretty okay with it. except I'm going to a show that night; so
depending on when they deliver it, I might not get to play it until I
get home; then I'll likely be up all night :-)

No, no...I meant *customs* keeping it,  not Elektron. Elektron's already
shipped it and sent me a tracking #.  on one of the two occasions when
my Sidstation was shipped to me, they kept it at US customs for a week
(I have no idea why). when I shipped it back to Sweden once, *Swedish*
customs kept it for a week! nobody likes to just read the paperwork and
send it on its way, I guess :-(

and the week wait didn't seem to help them much because they still
didn't read the paperwork.  I had to fight with them and fax them copies
of their own airway bill just to prove that it was in fact a warranty
repair and not a purchase (so I wouldn't have to pay tax+duties on it).
sheesh!
