My USPS Informed delivery email showed on May15 a shipping label created in Pembina, ND, for media mail. This is about 2 miles from the border and I assume it is the DGJ Index Reader III.
It doesn't yet show it has been shipped.

At least one other person has said the same thing. Let’s hope it’s the case. It sure would be a cap on a great run of serving the double gun community

I spoke with Johanna a week ago, and she said the books are being shipped out of ND... on Friday of last week I received an "informed mailing", that I'll be receiving a package from
Pembina, ND.. "Labels printed, waiting for item".

I hope it's sent in a study box, like the DGJ was mailed, rather than the plastic bags that shippers now use to mail publications! NOTHING LIKE BUMPED CORNERS ON A COLLECTIBLE BOOK!

I have had one listed for about a week. The label is created when you buy the postage for the package, so I suspect it is definitely happening. The shipper would not pay postage for a phantom shipment.

I did notice that the label was created for a Media Mail shipment. Those can sometimes take a while for delivery.

My USPS daily notice showed yesterday that it hadn't shipped yet. Today the tracking shows that it shipped and left ND with a 5/29 delivery also. Interestingly enough (but expected from the PO) today's mail update showed no packages in the system even though the tracking number shows it in transit. Don't minimize the ability of the USPS to screw this up.

By the way, drama in real life, not on TV or in print, would include the assassination of a president, a deadly weather event, or the discovery of a cheating spouse. The discussion of the delayed delivery of a book would not qualify as "drama". The Cotes are buying very little space in my brain. I'm just waiting patiently.
