Thread Title: "Hurricane Katrina slows Miss.t, perhaps others in the Gulf States"
AA-bob

Got the following message from miss.t. Appears her business has been disrupted by Hurricane Katrina.

Our prayers are with all our users and their families in Louisiana, Mississpippi, Alabama. Please post to this thread if you have any info about users affected by the Hurricane.

If anyone affected by Hurricane Katrina needs assistance with communication with family, friends, loved ones and we can be of any help, please post here with phone numbers/email addresses and instructions on what we can do to help.

Her's Miss.t's message:

"We were all forced to evacuate due to the Hurricane Katrina which just hit New Olreans, LA.

"miss.t@treasurehuntarms.com has no way to deal with the various auctions that were in play before the storm hit. She asks that someone please relay this to people.

"As soon as possible miss.t@treasurehuntarms.com will make contact to resolve auctions."

Recieved this update this morning:

"Greetings Bob,

"Thanks for all that you are doing. I haven't been able to talk with Terri for the past few days, but I know she really appreciates your help. I did get a text message from her that she had returned and secured most of her inventory so she feels confident that she can meet the obligations of the auctions which was a major concern for her since so much of her business depends upon her reputation.

"The situation here currently is very dangerous due to carjacking and looting by roving gangs. So once she secured the inventory, they turned around and went right back out. As a result, she is out of the communication loop again.

"I will keep you informed as I get info."

Be safe, Terri, be safe!

tomon One of the first items I purchased through AA was a Savage 340 in 30-30 from a dealer in Waveland, Mississippi. If my suspect memory is correct, his nickname is "Rostov". As there IS no more Waveland, has anyone heard from him? If my memory isn't right, the city did stick in my head, so there is a dealer out there. Tomon

AA-bob Terri, aka miss.t, was able to leave me a phone message today. I haven't been able to get through to the phone number she left to return her call as the circuits are understandably busy. She is well and wanted to stress she is, as always, most concerned for her customers and will get shipping to her customers as soon as she is able. Her estimate is that may be 2 or 3 weeks, so if you haven't received your item yet, please be patient.

If you won one of her ("miss.t')'s auctions and haven't sent payment yet, I'd advise waiting a bit until Terri can get back on her feet, figure out the best place to send it and the Postal Service to the area stabilizes.

Miss.t's son Richard, is also a seller on the site under nickname booker-t. He of course is in the same dire straights as Terri. I received a voice message from Terri and she says all of Booker-t's inventory was rescued and will be shipped as soon as possible.

Terri believes the mail will not be delivered for at least 2 more weeks, so if you've sent payment that would have arrived on or after the date Huirricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, it may take a couple weeks at least from now, before they can begin to process shipments.

Terri and Richard are of course most concerned for their customers and continue to get messages through to us during this particulaly trying time to let you all know they are concerned and aren't ignoring their customers.

Be safe, Terri and Richard. You and all those affected by this terrible calamity have been and remain in our prayers.

Latest on Terri,

"Greetings Bob,

"I just talked with Terri on a cell. They are on their way back now. Power has been restored to at least a portion of the area. Her cable Internet connection is out, but she plans to get a temporary dial-up.

The web and email servers are working so she should be able to receive email again within the next day or so as soon as she can get an ISP.
