It was a well-prepared evacuation (learned our lesson from Katrina) and we are staying with family in Florida. I packed my entire inventory of meteorites, laptop PC, and other necessities. So Galactic Stone & Ironworks is OPEN for business. I am taking PAYPAL ONLY since I do not have access to my local bank. Orders will be filled and shipped with only a slight delay of one or two business days since I do not have daily ready access to the post office. I still have several late packages that I am going to ship in the next day or two. So if you are one of my customers and you are waiting on your meteorites, please continue to be patient and your orders will be shipped in the next couple of days at the next opportunity. I will email each customer and confirm that the package is finally shipped. Thanks for your patience and concerns!

I Must Say You Went Above And Beyond The Call Of Duty, To Take And Mail Out All Meteorite Orders While Evacuating From A Hurricane. That Is A Prime Example Of Putting The Customer First! -------------------- Todd C.
