I've been waiting since the first of the year for a shipment from BC, but based on many past transactions, I know he shipped it when he said he did and that it will arrive or we will resolve it if US Customs lost it. A long history of good transactions certainly reduces anxiety levels. I never lose a minute's sleep about a purchase from BC and Cecile - By the way, Cecile doesn't get nearly enough mention or credit, but I'm sure BC would agree she is the "better half" of the operation.
