My sincere apologies to Nico & Jon for my failure to get these tubes to you. This is why I have always used PayPal as it offers protection to both the buyer and seller in the event something like the following takes place.........
Right after my last message to Nico, I suffered a stroke caused by blood clot that traveled to my brain. This might sound crazy.. but I was lucky. Normally, this type of clot is a killer. For me it impacted one side of my brain and effected my motor skills mildly but my speaking skills immensely. I could see, hear, understand, but could not communicate effectively what I was thinking.
I was in the hospital/therapy for a little over 3 months, and am just now getting back to work and to "normal life". I run a local territory for a company in the A/V industry and am paid commission only. Luckily, my company was very supportive of me and my family - and I carried pretty could disability insurance. I am thankful that things are all-in-all pretty good.
I really missed my Decware system all these months, and survived on iPods and such these long months. Music was very helpful in my therapy.
I had to do a lot of work to get back on-line with a bunch of sites, including this one. I forgot many password and had a slew of PC issues after we had the storms here, and while my computer sat for months getting hit with power surges, viruses, and other fun stuff.
Anyway.... it's been a long road, but I am feeling great now and getting back to enjoying life again.
I still have a number of these cryo'd tubes and would like to offer Nico & Jon first shot at them if interested. I will offer free shipping to you two.
Again my apologies, and i am glad PayPal took care of making you whole in returning your money.
I am looking forward to being back here on the Decware site - and getting back to enjoying this fun audio hobby
