I think we are talking about the same person. If we are talking about the same person, he doesn't like Calgary very much. He just got the ranch this year to go with the pony. I think he has a MINT SL sitting in the garage of his ex-wifes house. IIRC he started up another oil company, haven't been in contact for a little bit so I don't know if he still owns it.
 
well this is post 100..i had to make it... yeah im not sure. I dont even know the guy or who he is. I just know a family friend is setting up a time for me to see it. I guees i will find you next friday
 
Have you received your Vintage yet, Calgary????



Sheesh, you gotta keep us up to date! Even if it's just a "nope, it's not here yet" post! :)

Ewww... customs.... I shipped a foam cannon to a fellow Autopian that lived just barely across the border in Canada. It took three freakin' weeks for him to get it. And that was by First Class Postal service. I couldn't believe it!



Wow, I hope you don't have to wait that long. I got my Vintage two days from the day I ordered it. It would have been the next day, but I missed the FedEx deadline by two hours.



Calgary is such a beautiful city. I used to spend quite a bit of time there when I was with my previous employer. I used to love *all* the Canadian overnights we had...Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton. Beautiful cities, all of them. And I must say that overall, Canadians are faaaar more friendly than Americans. We could all take a lesson in common courtesy from our neighbors to the north.
 
What's this foam cannon your speaking of. Where can you buy it? Thanks SBEEE

yeas superbee canada is an amazing country. We are a very patrotic people, and welcome everyone with welcome arms. Unforuntly lots of these cities are getting bigger, and with that comes problems. For instance, calgary now has over 1 mill. Its starting to loose its small town feel,... but at theend of the day i could not imagine living in any other country. I am canadian and canada is my home :D



ok back on topic. I might have misinterprated when he said a week, it has happend in the past. If yours came in 2 days then I would assume mine would not take 3 weeks (taking customes out of the picture). Brett must have ment a week to customs... i guees we will find out soon enough
 
Congrats on the purchase. I cannot wait to hear how you like it. What are some other products that you used and will be comparing it to?
 
Am I the only one here cringing to myself thinking about all the scratches I'm going to put in my paint applying wax with my callussed man hands?

other zymols, pinncale sov, umm i dunno. I have tried a few other zymols and they all seam to bein a class of there own so i dont know what i will compare it to.



As for scratched from your hands. I have never had an issue. I have rough hands, waxed a few cars using the hand method and never had any issue.





I contacted brett, He was very quick to reply to my e-mail. Top marks there.

He said he talked to them earlier today. The wax is being packaged up, the paper work is being done tomorow and its getting shipped. That means in his hands by wensday. He said it would be shipped the same day he gets it.

He said the average delivery to canada is 5 days... but thats up to customs



And to boot he said he would take some pics for me before he ships it out :goodjob





so hopefully it should bein my hands by mid next week

Well said. So many times I've called customer service for a company and the (usually a female) rep is so helpful and pleasant. It prompts me to ask where she's located and they usually say somewhere in Canada.



Back on point - did you get your Vintage yet?

He's right. I just drop the cars off at a $19.99 detail place and relax for 8 hours! :grinno:
 
Did you get it yet?? I know its not tuesday, but....



Edit: BTW I had a pic of my empty container of Vintage. It is on my old memory chip that inconveniently took a dum(dive)p on me.........which led me to buy another chip, and which led me to spend another chunk of money on a new camera. Of course, totally unrelated but interesting filler material for internet text space.



I hope I can somehow get the pic of my empty container by the time you wow us with your full container pics.
