When my 5D arrived they couldn't give it to me...
When the DHL van arrived I was already in the door... He practically gave me the box in the middle of the road... so well... he said... Could you show me your ID? Oh! Well, I don't have an ID but I have my driver's license... my passport is in the foreigners office in Ratzeburg and it will be there until mid of October... Ok... Give me the driver's license... already the box had passed to his side and he was writing the numbers...
Let me phone the office if the driver's lincese is ok... the central office said no... It should be a passport. and I said... a bit loud... What... I bought it, I paid it already and you can't delivered My Camera just because I don't have the bl**dy passport with ME??
Nope, I won't deliver your camera he said... he took the box and put it back to the trunck... so I asked what I should do... he said I will wait until I get my passport... at this moment I started crying and the man was shocked...
I phoned G to the office... and I told him... He phoned the foreigners office to send via fax a copy of the passport, then he phone DHL to explane the problem...
Next day, he saw the copy of the passport and delivered the camera... I couldn't believe it... I was so happy...
