The first good news is I don't have to send in my D7200 for warranty work. While I was getting it ready for shipment it miraculously fixed itself lol. The issue with it was the time and date needed resetting each time I replaced the battery. I thought about sending it back to Adorama for a replacement but it only had 24 shutter actuations so I just kept it. Other than that there has been no other issues that I have noticed yet.
The second good news is I finally ordered a refurbished D500, a 32GB XQD, a 32 GB SDHC and a 3rd party battery grip from B&H Photo to replace my D750 that drowned earlier this spring.
Now the bad news. I ordered the D500 on the 2nd to be shipped via USPS 2 day express shipping. As of today I haven't received either of the 2 packages. USPS tracking showed the expected delivery dates to be on the 4th and the 7th and the last tracking update was on the 3rd and 4th when they arrived at Anchorage's distribution center, then nothing after that. I have opened at service request with USPS on the 9th and have been watching the tracking since then.
After calling USPS and inquiring about my packages earlier today, I just received an email saying my packages were scanned and ready for pickup on the 9th and 10th. That's some good news at least. More bad news, I can't take it until the interim Postmaster flies in to open our Post office for a couple days on Friday, weather permitting as they say in rural AK.
I was hoping they'd get in before the volleyball games last weekend but it wasn't supposed to be I guess. One good thing about this is B&H Photo refunded me the cost of the 2 Day Express shipping.

Some bad luck I've been having with this order. I've requested an RMA from B&HPhoto for a replacement and asked them to send it to a relative that lives in a town that has an open post office so he could send it out to me via an airline when he gets it. Hopefully the replacement will be fine when it arrives this time.
