Anecdote

Someone in Glendale Heights, Illinois, opened a package this week containing an 1869 map of Europe and thought "What the hell is this?!"

I know this, because that's exactly what I thought when I opened a package and it contained a Ralph Lauren Man's Adult Long Sleeve Dress Shirt Plaid Blue Green Red Pink size 3XB.



It seems our eBay purchases were mislabelled by the seller.

It was an honest mistake, and he's both refunded my money and offered a different map for free (which I turned down; he's already out of pocket from the postage).

Interestingly, it was I who received my package first, rather than the bloke in Glendale Heights who lives in the same country as the seller. I thought the Royal Mail was inefficient, but the US Postal Service clearly outclasses it in that department.



Referenced by Europe 1869.
