Christmas miracles do still happen - sorta.

Yesterday, 12/23/24, I received an odd shaped package in the mail, in it were 6 axles for WLToys 12428/12423 1/12 cars. I ordered these axles in mid September. A few days after the delivery window had ended I contacted the seller telling him that the order hadn't arrived. According to the tracking records it was delivered into the hands of the "Final mile" shipper in mid to late October - and hadn't moved since. The seller contacted the shipper requesting them to search for the package. About a week later, with no response from the shipper, I asked the seller to refund my money - which he did on 11/19/24.

Then yesterday the axles showed up, the package had been obviously opened and resealed. The package was tagged as inspected by US Customs. I contacted the seller and told him that the axles, for which he had already refunded $87.76 to me, had finally arrived. I told him that I had received the refund in mid-November and asked him to send me an invoice for the $87.76 that had been refunded. So that I could pay him for the axles.

Today I got an e-mail from the seller thanking me for my honesty. He also told me that they couldn't access the refund from their end, so I should just forget about the money and to have a nice Christmas.

Small Christmas miracles do still happen.
