My internet service (the provider) went dead Monday afternoon (on line by logging into a neighbors service provider) and I'd ordered up some goodies from John's shop. My e-mail service is still 'tit's up', as we'd say on this side of the Pond, so can't contact him directly at the moment.

Need to confirm, via PM, that he got my order and credit card number, to 'do the deal.' Would someone be kind enough to call him and ask and have him respond to me via PM?

Would greatly appreciate if you would!!!!

Many Thanks in advance!

Fred Evans

I'll try after 9.00am local time for you edit. the number I have doesn't work so have sent an email on your behalf.

John does not allow PM so you can only contact him through his online shop and he would have to get another member to PM Fred.

The fly shop here in Ashland, Oregon actually has wood floors, with the odd flat copper sheet tacked down where repairs were needed. Walk in a little bell above the door rings to let Will know someone's there. Now THAT is 'old school.'

Back on line now, and PM's going back and forth with John to find out/confirm my order came through on his 'on-line' shop. I need to confirm my credit card info came through on his end too. When I hit the 'submit payment' button the first time nothing happened ... so did it again. And that set off all of Capital One's credit cards electronic bells and whistles.

Fellow actually called me** from the credit card company to confirm the transaction (79 Pounds). Assured him it was and he was going to 'authorize' the charge. Need to call them back today and check/confirm the funds transfer. What makes it a bit touchie is John uses a intermediate on line company so no way for me to check 'your end.'

Geeze, what a pain in the butt.

** Now how the credit card company had my cell phone number is a ???????? Only thing that's occurred to me (as I type this) is I've had the same phone number (cell) for years and it may have been on the original card application. Actually, the number was the first one issued (back in 1995/6) by A T & T in all of Southern Oregon.

Need your help again. Can't find the link to John's shop (just his web board); would someone be kind enough to post the link?

Thanks in advance!!
Fred

Jeez Fred, ive had the same cell account since '89, except they stuck a 7 between the 0 and the 9 when the masses all got one. BTW just got an email from John. Glad you got through.

Just PM'ed John (responding to his): "BINGO! As of now .... neither of the confirming e-mails. See you on-line at your shop in a moment.
Fred"

Apparently if the order, and payment, had gone through I'd get a confirming e-mail from John AND the payment acceptor (is that the correct term??). Neither as of a moment ago, so off we go on line (and thanks for the link above) and give this a second go-around.
Fred

Edit: John, $$ are in your bank account; second time around 'did the deal.'
