Missing GC part. Does it matter?

First time the shipment was "on it's way to me" I took 2 weeks to track it down because it did not get shipped to me and I couldnt get a tracking # from him. Then after follow up after followup, it finally gets here and no plastic cover. Surprising because Tim is usually great to work with, but this was beyond my worst nightmare. My worst nightmare in this case was to be without a roaster for about a month :\

There is no question that the PO/UPS and Fed Ex make mistakes but if you actually sent your roaster or money for parts and they have not been received in some timely fashion, I would bark loudly. Being kinda over it sounds like you are not telling the whole story! Ask for the plastic cover NOW. The sad story is that most people do not do their job. So tons-o-folk are left holding the bag. For all of those who do follow up and get the job done great this comment was not meant for you. If you do not act for yourself nothing will happen. Call Tim tomorrow and tell him what has happened; clearly he will take care of it if it is his responsibility. If in fact he does not let me know and I would be more then happy to be an active person with your issue regarding the Gene Cafe. ginny

Your roaster will operate without it, but keep yer mitts out of the way until Tim sends you one. Stay safe! Have fun. John Respect the bean.
