I need to spend more time with it, but it is a tad narrower than I prefer. Excellent stepped shape though.

It’s glow in the dark, that’s why it’s green and I’m not planning on getting rid of it, haha it’s cool 😆

Similar aesthetic but different. Overture is super heavy and solid. Creep much more floaty and better overall imo.

Yeah I’m not a particular fan of the overture. Creep plays more Grail-like, which is a compliment.

BST elite. Local tracking claims delivered but nowhere to be found. This has happened before, then it magically arrives the next day… not this time  
I don’t get why some PO employees are so serious when it comes to the mail, but others are just lost.  
countless times I get someone else’s mail.

The USPS here in LA plays games with delivery status all the time. They routinely deliver a day or two later than scheduled, they will sometimes mark a package as delivered even though it hasn’t been (and then actually deliver it a day or two later), and once they even marked the status as “Held at customer’s request,” which was complete fiction (I requested no such thing).

All of this is a product of the fact that the USPS is woefully under-staffed, and it is a rare day that mail carriers will actually have enough time, even with a double or triple shift, to deliver everything that is scheduled for delivery on any given day. However, due to contractual obligations with certain companies (like Amazon), they must deliver “on time” or pay penalties, and so they lie about the status on a fairly regular basis to avoid them.

Clearly the current shipping rates charged to consumers isn’t _nearly_ enough, and this situation is likely to only going to get worse.
