If this was discussed before my apologies for repeating an old story. Interesting that the return address is San Diego, yet the envelopes were postmarked in Michigan. Businesswise is it actually cheaper to get an out-of-state mail service company to mail the badges as opposed to one just down the street or at least somewhere in the same metropolitan area?
That is great Roger. Hope to meet up with you and your family during WC.
To me, it seems like... it might be because the badges themselves are most likely manufactured out-of-state, but the return address is in San Diego because that is CCI's base of operations.That's just my educated guess. ^__^;;
That's also my uneducated guess.
