I think the team at SF must be extraordinarily busy. Good for them. I sent an Etsy upgrade "conversation" last Friday (and a follow up today) but haven't got a response yet. Busy is good though.

They will get to it soon, they are hiring a new CSR to help with the responses. They handled several upgrade conversations for me, it just takes some time.

The wait times for Etsy recently have all been 9 or 10 weeks before they actually ship out. I wouldn't expect at all for it to come anytime before then, quite honestly. They're working hard, but there's just too many orders.
I am actually on week 8 overall, as of today, I was referring to the 5-10 day estimate after the order is in the build queue in my comments above. I think the two estimates, one until you are in the queue and one while in the queue causes some confusion, even here, but especially for those Etsy customers who never make it to this forum. Sure it is stated on the Etsy site but once again some people never read the fine, or large print for that matter, they just click and think that shipped means---well shipped. It is a shame that Esty, a site used by many an artist or craftsman, does not have a option to have something like "building" or "crafting" appear rather than "shipping".Knytiri wrote:

Anywho that and Rocket Surgeon, a person so "smart"(read dumb for those who don't get the idiom) they are a cross between a rocket scientist and a brain surgeon, are two of my favorite expressions lately. |

Malapropism, is the switching of words in a sentence or saying to give the sentence a completely different meaning.
Also there could be cultural and geographic aspects at work here. In the UK the saying "A one legged man in an ass kicking contest" refers to someone in a no-win situation, argument or fight (i.e. an underdog). The one legged man not being able to kick his opponent's glutimus maximus or ASS (bottom, seat) hence useless. But the word ASS also refers to the animal with four legs causing more confusion. It's taken me all this time to try and come up with this explanation! I hope things are clearer! Just wait till members start using Spoonerisms! Google it if you've never heard of it! Now back to Lightsabers.... |

Now back to Lightsabers.... For those outside the US the saying above means being very busy. Or in other words a man with one leg would have to work very hard to kick asses (the rear end kind). |
