I should add this, Allen: If you are buying this Philco 66 via eBay, you can send the seller all of the shipping instructions you want, and the seller will gleefully ignore them. And don't even try to ask a seller to use any company other than the post office. Oooooh, it's not cooonnnveeeeeeenient for me to go to FedEx! I gave up after wasting my time with several dummies whose only concern was getting that money in their hot little hands. Buying a radio on eBay is a gamble.

And now, here I sit, waiting for a radio which was shipped Friday, 12/14, and the scan shows acceptance at the originating post office, and has since disappeared into a black hole. It was allegedly supposed to be delivered yesterday, which came and went - and the tracking number still shows only the origin scan, nothing more.
