[Leica] M8 Kaput - latest update

[cummer at netvigator.com (Howard Cummer)]

Hello Luggers,
First thank you to those sent me condolences and a special thanks to  
those who offered to help through their connections. DHL called this  
afternoon to say they had located the package in their lost section  
at Wilmington Ohio. Some one will call me tomorrow afternoon to  
identify the package and then they will send it on to Germany. They  
will refund my courier charges since the camera will take more than  
two weeks to arrive. No mention of compensation for phone calls to  
Germany or seared nerve endings. I have been dealng with Herr Jakob  
at Leica who has been following up from his end and I am using the  
correct Solmser Gewerbepark 8 address. Hopefully my customs  
declaration form will still be with the camera so it will be accepted  
by Leica - sometime next week - all going well. Then the struggle  
about repair or replace will begin.
Howard
