    Sometimes vendors ship products in separate boxes for a variety of reasons. It may be the shipper who did not keep them together.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    Normally I am too, but I can't do much with the fly since I sold all my other gear

    Sorry for the confusion/problems was mainly wondering if anyone else has had the same issue.

    I think the reason Im confused because I only got one tracking number, so I just assumed that I was getting both pieces that I ordered at once and hearing others that ordered theirs a day after me and receiving them on Friday I figured I would be as lucky.

    Just shoot him a nice email. Usually he ships everything together so somethings amiss. He's pretty quick about getting back with you, usually in the late evening.
    It's too hot to be trippin anyway.

    Unfortunately, mistakes are made and this may have been an oversight. From all the posts about new members getting BB's it's possible it's just an honest mistake due to him being so busy. It's not an excuse, just a reality. I feel for you, it is frustrating but it happens. I almost didn't have gear for a winter hang this past winter but my fellow members came through for me and lent me enough to get by. My gear arrived the day I got back, go figure. Hope you get it sorted out.

    i had a go around with Brandon in '08 and he came out with flying colors. hes a stand up guy. maybe he thought you had another hammock to test out the fly with and wanted to relieve your stress. LOL

    I hope you had a "plan B", in case something happened with the mail... have you tried calling him?

    Plus one on Brandon ... I'm guessing he got what was available out as fast as possible. Win win situation there! He's good people!
