But at this point it seems as though the box has vanished...

I've emailed voidxar to ask again what the status is. It's possible he hasn't been getting notifications from replies or PMs.

Was there tracking on the package to see if it's been delivered?

I got a message back from voidxar last week. He has had the box for a couple of weeks. Life circumstances had been preventing him from checking on here, so he hadn't been online for a couple of weeks.

I emailed heathkid and asked him to email voidxar with his name/address information 3 days ago. I haven't heard back from him. I just sent him a PM in case that email went missing.

I received the box today.  It's certainly going to take me a few days to go through it (it's packed FULL).

Update:
Okay, there is some serious "garbage" in here.  Yes, I know one person's junk is another's treasure... but I'm talking stuff no one would EVER use... and it's taking up precious space in the box.  I've been sorting things into "samples", LCDs (not as many or any useful that I can see), and various other parts into seperate bags.  I'm afraid I can't use (take out) enough to put IN what I wanted to because the box has so much (sorry to say...) junk in it by now.

Anyone against me "sorting the real junk out" to make some room???  Also, there is no way to do a complete inventory at this point.  Seriously... a bag of empty bags and anti-static bags thrown in with nothing in them?

So far I see some LEDs I like and some SMT parts... but not really worth the shipping cost let alone what I had planned to toss in.  I'm a bit disappointed.  But, *IF* I can make some room in the box I will be sending forward some good things regardless.

One more stop to touch, then it's back to systemstech when the box is being split down to the components box and parts box.  That should alleviate a lot of the over stuffing issue (for now).  Also, I just noticed I haven't rejoined this list...

Same here... maybe if I'm not so far down on the list I might get something really good.  But, if it's going to get split up which order on the list will the two boxes go in?  Or should there be a seperate list for each box?

I'll be tied up for the next two months with work and working extra long hours. I wont have any time to mess with the box and the split. I will remove my self from both list. If anyone is willing to do the split let me know.

This is a nightmare!  Sorry it's taking so long.  I'm going to have to go one more weekend sorting things so I can fit *anything* in this box.  voidxar... I have no clue how you managed to get the box closed!  Anyway... I plan on moving it along next week so if "touch" would please PM me your shipping address so I can get things ready I'd appreciate it.  Also, if there is anything specific you're looking for... let me know.

drjeseuss if you're going to do the "split" I highly recommend you put yourself in at #24 since you'll be covering for systemstech.  This should have been split up a while ago I'm guessing by the amount of parts, components, and junk... there is absolutely no way to do a complete inventory at this point.  I'm not even going to try.  I'm only going to take out enough that I can fit in some "real good stuff" for the next on the list and get it on its way.  I've already sorted a LOT of things into bags so it makes some sense.  Oh well... maybe next time around I'll get enough out to at least cover the shipping costs.

This is already done, though not reflected by the list directly.  touch knows to send to me after his turn and has my shipping info already.  The list continues to grow and grow, still showing the very first stop.  Might I suggest we start trimming the list so the #1 spot is always whoever is next in line, then counting down the list from there.  We can always browse back through the thread to trach history if needed.  Anyone object to this?  If not, I'll rewrite the list to count from my turn down, eliminating the spots already visited.
