BackStory

I started leetcode in early days of July 2019 . I was in the first year of Btech so i was still learning basic concepts of C/C++ . With leetcode Object Oriented Platform it was a bit difficult for me to understand how the execution goes and how to make functions etc. I began with the Easy Section of Leetcode and then started solving them gradually . After a year I was at a stage where 200 easy q were solved
.
Then I realized this isn't enough for growing skills and intuition, so I then did only Medium level question and since after Mar 2020 was a lockdown due to covid I devoted my entire day and nights to Leetcode problems.
I learned Dp concepts , Backtracking, Dfs , Bfs and other solving techniques and the most benefecial thing for me was the Leetcode Discussions. I found brilliant solutions and fascinating coding styles by many users which helped me to cope up my skills and refine them for new problems.

Soon the Daily Challenge of Leetcode came into play from Apr 2020 and it provided 10 leetcoins per problem and for completing entire challenge addition of 200 leetcoins i.e. sums to 500 a month. This boosted my confidence and efforts and soon I was at a stage of 600+ medium level quetions

By the end of 7th Dec 2020 I was having 6805 leetcoins and I was ready to redeem the leetcode kit.

Redeeming The Leetcode Kit

The kit was of 6800 coins .

I redemmed it on 7th of Dec 2020 soon the next day a guy named John mailed me regarding the infos.
He asked me about name , address, and contact and told me to wait for at least 14 days for follow up.

After a long wait on 29 Dec ( i.e. after 22 days) , I got a mail saying that they
didn't have the leetcode pen in stock so they wanted to provided refund of 400 coins.
I was a bit disappointed due to this but I told them to exchange my pen with another kechain as there was no use of coins for me.

So after accepting my demand they finally shipped it on 7th Jan 2020 with USPS facility.
It was shipped from San Francisco.
As it had to come India it needed to pass custom clearance here . So it arrived in Delhi, India at 14 Jan 2020.
It took 7 days with the custom process and finally they clearaed it on 21 Jan .

At last it came to my door on 28 Jan and the delivery man asked a copy of identity proof for recieving.
