On Radiance took option to have it shipped to Canada - big mistake! It was stopped in Cdn customs - Tried to find my address in that city - not where I live! Called Royal who had it shipped back to Florida and tried again - got a call from customs who wanted my account #? Called Royal who fixed something and - Mid Feb - sailed in late Sept. I finally got my block. Some delay was because they changed supplies of block. Advice - take your block when onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So instead of a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, it's a block in the hand is worth two on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

go fish 44 Posted July 11, 2023 #1714 Share Posted July 11, 2023 We are still waiting for our Odyssey block from Feb. 2022 I have called C and A twice about this block and the last time I called (May 2023) they said you are not able to get this block as you left it too late to call us I said it is not my job to call about the block it is supposed to be automatic and Sophie said that she would put in a request but if I did not hear from C and A in 2 weeks it meant that I was not going to get the block. Never heard from C and A Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2travelcats Posted August 7, 2023 #1718 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I’d love to trade for your Grandeur. I have Navigator and Serenade original script crystal blocks to trade. They are in new condition, never displayed or handled, no chips or scratches and come in their original satin lined box. Would have to do a mailing trade. Thanks for considering!

Tatka Posted August 7, 2023 #1719 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Interesting. We buy models of ships every time we sail on them for the first time, but we treat crystal blocks as artifact/memory from sailing we received it for when we reached certain number of points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are supposed to get a note in your cabin on the cruise during which you reach 140. Since you didn't, call C&A. I didn't realize we had passed 140 til I got home (didn't get the note). They can mail it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdandMary Posted August 13, 2023 #1725 Share Posted August 13, 2023 We only need to find one block to have all of the blocks on ships that we have sailed on. If anyone has and will sell me the block I will buy it. We live in America. We want THE SOUVEREIGN OF THE SEAS. Email: baumeier7@msn.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
