Ordered a bottle of Pen's BB on eBay from a seller with thousands of positive feedback, who sells exclusively Pen's merchandise. Reached out to him after 2 weeks from date of payment; he was really polite and informed me the method he uses to ship (from UK to USA) usually takes 3 - 6 weeks. In other words, it gets sent the least expensive, and therefore slowest, method possible.
Arrived today after being in transit for 4 weeks. I was really excited initially. But I haven't opened it yet; it lost its allure after a month long wait. I know keeping frag in heat is a 'no-no.' Here, it was regularly quite warm for most of those four weeks; no clue on the temperatures in the hull of whatever boat it came across the Atlantic in.
I'm fearing there was too much heat and it 'changed' this otherwise fine bottle of BB.
Should I be this worried? Would you be? Its just so bizarre that he has such high feedback, deals exclusively in Pen's frags, yet ships them via such a half-arsed delivery method (I would have gladly paid a little more to get it here in less than a month had I known the method of delivery).
