    Seriously?!

    I mean I have heard of being forgetful, but DAMN!

    P.S. I am quite sure your fine and he will return your stuff with no issues at all.

    After reading a few of his posts, I would also agree he will probably return them to you without incident.

    I already asked him if he gets it not to open it or accept it. There is no way from my end to track it and there is no insurance. The other package though had more insurance on it than what the cable is even worth

    It sounds like you shipped multiple cables versus one. I hope you do not have a single cable worth $11K. Even I, super Shunyata fan, consider that absurd.
    Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable
    Sony XA-5400ES SACD; Pass XP-22 pre; X600.5 amps
    Magico S5 MKII Mcast Rose speakers; SPOD spikes

    Shunyata Triton v3/Typhon QR on source, Denali 2000 (2) on amps
    Shunyata Sigma XLR analog ICs, Sigma speaker cables
    Shunyata Sigma HC (2), Sigma Analog, Sigma Digital, Z Anaconda (3) power cables

    Mapleshade Samson V.3 four shelf solid maple rack, Micropoint brass footers
    Three 20 amp circuits.

    That was nice of you to help out a fellow polkie. Normally I just send what a fellow buys, not a whole system of associated components.
