Chinese Spring festival time!

[eljefino]

Bought a trinket off ebay with free shipping all the way from Hong Kong. Got the following email after I bought & paid for it:


Thank you for your purchase. Chinese Spring Festival is coming, so we will
have a few days holiday. If you buy the items during Jan 24 to Jan 27 , we
will ship your items on Jan 28.We are sorry for all the inconvenience. If
you have any problem , please email us and we will try to reply you within
48 hours. Happy new year!

We have received your payment. Thank you for your prompt payment.
I think the next question you want to know is "when will the item be sent？"
We will be shipping on the next working day;if it is Friday today, that means
next Monday.Be patient, your item has dressed up and is standing in line
to catch the plane.
Please check again whether you have left your contact number or your item
might miss you if you are not at home.
Regards,
Gohankuu



I am blushing with excitement! My VGA cable is going to have a party then get dressed for the plane!!

I had a text book shipped to me in two days from Hong Kong. Faster than all of the times I bought anything online here. Only paid $4 for shipping too.

They aren't free, you have to buy food or toys to get them.
