 My shipping is taking forever.I chose ups thinking it would b faster than usps. Mine shipped on Sept. 15 from California. Yesterday it was in INDIANAPOLIS, IN,at 7:25am and there has not been an update since. I'm in Georgia about an hour south of Atlanta. It says it will b here tomorrow. I wish it would hurry up. I'm in the same boat as jlee745 in that I opted for UPS thinking it would be faster/more secure. My shipment left Oberon on 9/17 and I still haven't seen an update that the package made it out of California. /sigh guess I have something to look forward too this way. I did play around with creating my own screensavers, which was kind of fun in a geek-sort-of-way. |

My Chocolate Medici (ordered the morning of the 16th) just arrived a few minutes ago. Good day for it too. I woke up at 3:30 this morning in horrible pain, and feeling terribly nauseated. I went to the doctor, it's a kidney stone. Yippee.  So the Oberon's arrival is a very nice way to make up for an awful, awful morning! I will try to get some pictures of it a little later, but right now the Vicodin is kicking in, and I think I need to lie down! |

My hubby had them recently and he too was in horrible pain . Hopefully they will pass soon and you feel much better. Glad you got your cover, I have the exact same one, I love mine. Get better soon. |

Thanks, Atunah! They loaded me up with anti-inflammatories and anti-nausea medications (wow - that nausea!) and I am feeling much better for the moment. I am chugging down the water, and hoping it will pass quickly. Thanks for the good wishes!

Yaaayyyyyy, my Oberon shipped! I ordered on Monday. Now to see how fast usps priority is: wondering if I may get it by Saturday or if I'll have to wait for next week... I'm on the East Coast. Anyway, I'm sooooo excited  ! |

I ordered two K3 covers from Oberon on the 14th.... called them on the 16th when I found out that I could order them without the wool and updated my order..... and received them today. I used USPS and they took three days to get to Iowa..... but... I.... COULD..... NOT......BE..... HAPPIER!! I got Dragonfly Pond in sky blue and Bold Celtic in saddle and they are stunning!!

I did.... the saddle Bold Celtic will be for fall/winter.... and the sky blue Dragonfly Pond (which looks almost exactly like our little pond - complete with frog - will be for spring/summer. I've never had an Oberon Kindle cover... I've always used a journal cover for my K1.... and I have to say that the way this K3 cover holds my K3 is wonderful! I did opt for no wool and I'm so glad I made that choice too. I bought my replacement K3 and gave it to my son's girlfriend.... so I think we'll be ordering another Oberon cover for her soon. Oberon outdid themselves on these covers!! Thanks, Atunah..... thinking of you as always! |

I noticed most of you opted for the usps priority mail option. I know that usps doesnt have a tracking system but did you guys get anything other than shipment accepted? Mine is still "shipment accepted" not in transit or en route or whatever. Does it give you the extra tracking details or does it jst stay as shipment accepted till its delivered? Btw the delivery address is in san diego, so there arent many stops on the way, so maybe thats why? or would it at least say out for delivery?
