Family issues are fine and all, but if you don't think you'll be able to come through for people, maybe hold of on the hobby for a bit, eh?
This is my problem, coming through for people in a prompt manner. I've had tons of issues lately with just getting off my butt and shipping stuff. I've hung it up completely more or less as far as GTZ and DP are concerned, and I won't be selling too much here or at TGN for a while, either. Yeah, it's probably ticking off those who were waiting for packages from me for several weeks, but believe me, I'm still my worst critic, and it's been driving me to the brink of insanity. But I will say this...where I'm concerned, it's inexcusable. There are about 5 people still waiting on packages, and they are on their way (though I have a very slow post office...), and I'm in talks with 2 others on deals (I'm buying, though, as opposed to selling...I'm much faster when it comes to buying as far as holding up my end of the deal goes), but after those, I'm going to have to start saving money. The fiancee and I are moving closer to getting married (and potentially moving out of Cleveland). Where and when, well, we haven't exactly set that up yet, but it may very well be sometime next year. But after that money is spent for those two deals, I will likely be holding off on buying anything (in the $50+ range) more for a good while (be it for a couple months or for a year or more).

Yes, Matt is my name . And perhaps there is a difference between late shipping and shipping crap. However, neither one is right, and to be honest, at times I almost feel like a criminal for not shipping things promptly. I have a mild case of autism, as well as OCD, which means I tend to take things the wrong way and blow things out of proportion. To many, shipping crap and not making it right would seem much more severe than shipping the right items late. To me, though...as the shipper of the purchased items, I'd feel equally horrible either way.
Can you confirm whether or not the games have been sent to everyone? I understand we all have are issues me included, maybe someone from the the forums here lives close by that could help you out and get this stuff sent on its way.
No problem, bro. At least that's what I'd normally say. But it took me way too long to get these out. Ordinarily (back in the day), I'd have had these out Monday after the Expo. But I wait, and I procrastinate, and I ship a few when I get the chance, and the rest when I get another chance. As a result, this happens. As stated earlier, I probably won't be an active trader for a good while after this is resolved. However, I would absolutely love to enjoy to continue reading and posting to the several online forums of which I'm a member. I consider you all a family to me, and as much as I hate to give any reason for one to remove their trust in me, I believe I've gone so far this time as to give reason to remove trust in myself. I sincerely apologize for the delay, and I am taking all necessary steps to prevent such delays from happening in any future transactions.
matt, quit being hard on yourself, you crazy asshole!!! i dont think there is 1 person on this entire site that lost any trust in you! so what? you took a little longer than normal to get some stuff in the mail? who cares! you didnt take everyone's money and run with it! hell, you even gave a discount off of the actual price just so you could open them to see if a card was inside!!! all in all, it was a great transaction for me and im sure the rest of the people who got games from you would agree with me! soooooooooooo, quit being hard on yourself!!!
The SE ones were all in gold carts. Each one of them #1-10 had numbered title screens saying "Special Edition 1 of 10" The opening bunny screen had a topless bunny instead of one that was in a corset. They have a few extra inserts in the box as well, plus a football sticker on the front of the box.
I still have my customs receipts...let me see if I can dig them out for you. It'd be later today, though, as I'm minutes away from leaving the house for the day ...

No problem. I've learned my lesson from this: don't do preorders if you can't ship them fast enough . I hope we can all trade again in the future (especially since I figured out the whole online shipping bit).

marvelus10: I can confirm that they have been sent, and if not already there should be there within 3 days (US) to 1-2 weeks (overseas).
thank you

I know Martin over at NESworld hasn't received his as of yet either, any word on whether it has been sent out or not?

And I quote what I said about 2 weeks ago
