But, I've read here more than once that it sometimes takes a while for it to move. The person that took it may be behind on logging, or they may not have dropped it off yet. Good Luck!! Quote
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 The person that picked up the TB is a fairly well seasoned cacher with what looks to be like a good record of TB moves. Has been fairly busy as of late, mostly with micros. Two weeks may be pushing it, but given his record, I wouldn't worry about it at this point. A month isn't really out of the question. Quote
ad5smith Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 i forgot the main question, is it a bad idea to send a email to the person who picked it up, and what's a timeframe to do so Quote

+Gitchee-Gummee Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 re: emailing... I probably would wait at least a month before doing so. And then... be tactfully careful in the way you ask them to get it moving. Quote
+Nathan Wert Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I just dropped off a TB, after having it for 9 months. Why did it take me so long? Because my daughter lost it in her room and we didn't find it until now. The original owner did e-mail me, but I can't remember how long he/she waited. Personally, I'd give them a month or so. They could be saving it for a get together. Quote
ad5smith Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 Then a month i'll wait, thanks for the input. I did't want to be offensive to the picker-upper lol, that's why i asked, cause if figured hey i'm probably not the first person to experiance this Quote
