Let Me Share with you the Anguish

Quite a few weeks ago I shared a post titled "Let me share with you - the joy"
It was referring to this great little ice cream cone punch from Martha Stewart that was produced in 2009.  I had been searching for it for months as it is no longer in production and I had found it in a store online in England....In fact, the last one they had in stock, and I couldn't find it anywhere else in the world, literally.
So I purchased it before my vacation and I expected it to be delivered somewhere around the time I was on vacation.
So when I came back I was eager to see it.
Well, turns out it hadn't arrived so I sent the company an email asking for any additional information they could give me.
They said it was shipped around March 29th and the date of my email was April 29th so I thought a solid month for overseas shipping was reasonable.  I told them I would give it two more weeks as I was desperate to have it and they had no more in stock.  She agreed to give me a refund.
Well,  two weeks came and went and I got no package.  So I just recently had to give in and ask for the refund.
So now, I'm looking for the refund on my statement and searching for the punch again.

I was suprised to see a listing on Ebay that contained a BRAND NEW PUNCH!  It started around 10.00 but I have put in a bid on it and I'm currently winning it for $75.00.
Unfortunately, had I got the one I ordered at the store, it only would've cost me 15 USD but it wasn't meant to be.  I'm just glad I have another chance at it, so I'm willing to go very high to get it.  I expect it will end somewhere around 125-130.  It still has a few days to go so we will see what happens.
I will keep you updated on the final winning bid of course!
Oh, what an ordeal for one little punch.

But while I was on vacation I did get my shipment from New Zealand of a witches hat and icicles that I ordered so it wasn't a total screw up for overseas shipping.
