HIRIART Delivery Day! (1 Viewer)

[Terp152]

This set is for Terp152 (Chris). It is set 1325 Sudanese Camel Corps, 1897. Once you get one of Hiriart's camel corps sets, it is hard not to want to collect them all.

Right you are Mike, and the add on set is on order for next yr. :smile2: Now I have to figure what to order after that from all the great pics you have posted. Going to be a long hard wait! Chris

The order includes two special non-catalog band sets based on catalog set 1119 Greek Evzones. Here is the set for MikeNick (Mike) and yes Jeff, I also happened to order one for me too.[/QUOTE

Hi Chris,

I'll be shipping your set soon. As you know, you have two different camel corps add-on sets on 2013's order. Maybe, you should consider the catalog set of the second one which includes an officer and bugler, if you don't already have it.

Hi Mike,

Yes it is, that's why I ordered one for me, too.

On Saturday morning, I passed out 19 sets to the Hiriart collectors who met a Bob's house. In addition, they took eight additional re-sale sets that I brought with me. From left to right are Bob, Fred, Gary, and Alan. We also spent a hour or two looking over Bob's collection and talking toy soldiers, uniforms, battles, etc. before going to lunch together. I got back home in time to watch UCLA lose to Stanford in a very ugly (from my point of view) football game. Other than that, it was a great day.

For the rest of you who have sets in this shipment, I have prepared 17 shipping boxes and plan to take them to the post office and weigh them today. I'll then go online to the USPS site to see what the shipping charges are for each box. As soon as I have that information, I'll be contacting each of you individually.

As I receive payment from the collectors who have sets on this order, I pay the postage and print the shipping labels on-line. Here are the first four orders going out today. Twelve more to go, including internationaL orders that I must take to the Post Office to ship.
