Phoenix Gold Phorum

Just found that in a forum where a guy ordered some stuff on ebay and the seller shipped everything to Australia

That is funny yet really sad.

I would guess about 98.638% of people don't know the difference...

man I give ya shit about it just in jest but to actually ship it to the complete wrong continent I thought was too difficult to be done...... Funny shit

Would have loved to have been standing behind him at the moment he realized there was a difference........

I don't know a single person outside of the forum that would mess that up.

Wendy even has several kids with downs syndrome at work who can easily tell the difference

Matt often ships parts towards austria for me and all boxes clearly say AUSTRIA on them. So far they managed to sent 2 packages towards AUSTRALIA

Funny thing when u get the package after a while that says:

Sorry! Package missent to Australia

Darn Americans

A close friend of mine only knows where Florida, California, Michigan and Illinois are (he lives in Michigan). He does not even know where the capital of Michigan is on a map, let alone the difference between Washington and Washington DC.

All through high school he had Car Audio & Electronics magazines inside his textbooks and read those (well, looked at the pictures) during class. How he graduated I will never know.

I don't know where the capital of Michigan is on a map (do I even know what the capital is? Detriot?) but I do know the difference between Washington State and Washington DC. Is that good enough for being a Canadian who lives out west?

as long as he know ohms law and how to calculate rms with a dmm then hes set for life

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Idiots!

Maybe we should start shipping these items to the proper name of Austria, Österreich. Or maybe that would cause more confusion.

People outside of Europe don't seem to have much idea what the Eastern Empire is, which is fine and all but probably just as confusing as Australia/Austria.
