I've escalated it via PayPal and the seller have now raised a complaint with DHL. In my claim I've explained that I wasn't given any proof of delivery (signature or photographs), so there's nothing to prove it was delivered other than the driver clicking a button. I live directly on the street (a small lane off a main road to be precise) with no plant life, so there aren't many places to hide it. If it was left on my doorstep it would be in full view of anyone walking past, a problem in itself.

I got the 'its been delivered' email on the 23rd of December

Thanks for the advice. I've opened a dispute via Paypal, fingers crossed!

I'm frustrated because it's a seller I have used for a few years with no issues, and I like what they do. Its a disappointment they aren't being more helpful.

I ordered £100 worth of SIS cables that were couriered by DHL. They never turned up, but I received an email saying they had been delivered to *my surname* (they had not). I checked with my neighbour who coincidentally shares my surname, but he didn't have it. I asked my other neighbours, the same story. I've contacted the seller and they've told to contact DHL. Now I've done some reading and Citizen's Advice says if I didn't agree to my parcel being delivered to alternative location it's the seller's responsibility to make sure it get's delivered, and would be liable for a refund if DHL fails to deliver it. However, the caveat is that if I agreed to the T&Cs, then they are not liable. Here's my question: by buying from the seller, have I agreed to DHL's T&Cs? Which, by the way, are essentially that DHL can do and say whatever they want and you can't do anything about it.

A great nasty fuzz pedal. No signs of wear, and only used at home. The Fuzz knob seems to have a dead spot, I'd guess 1-2mm just before its up full. I'm looking into it, but if you want it and know how to fix it... Comes with original box. Selling to make buying a house about 0.00000013% easier. £5 postage to mainland UK.

For sure! You'll get the purchase money back if not the taxes/duty. -

The Le Bass certainly looks to be more versatile than the Noble, but the one thing the Noble does it does RREEEEAAAAAALLLLLLYYYYYYY well. I've only had mine for a couple of months but already its a must have in my rig. -

Made a few changes since the last time I posted. I've swapped out the TC flashback for the Solidgoldfx EM-iii delay, which has a high pass filter and a feedback function. I've also swapped the Tru-fi Super Fuzz for the Colordriver. The main addition is the Noble Preamp that arrived on Wednesday. It's a tight squeeze! And it has to go upside down! But it sounds amazing (as expected) and means I can go full in-ears if need be (when the short XLR I ordered shows up). -
Duties and fees (through UPS): £245

Mine is on its way, should have it next week. Jack was even considerate enough to check if I really needed the pelican case, which I decided I didn't - I plan for it to be on either of my boards all the time. He seems like a really genuine dude, only in it to make a great product. I'll let you know the import costs!

I've been looking at delays (yes, I know, blasphemy on bass). I have a TC Flashback but I want one that can do momentary feedback, and also has a HPF. Lo and behold, SolidGoldFX make the EM-iii multi-head echo, which does both, plus other stuff. But xmas is coming up and I'm saving for a new house... 😔

This is a limited edition finish (usually they're red), includes original box and papers. Hardly used so in great condition. Note: in my opinion this is best used with guitar. I found that the bass knob doesn't compensate for the loss in low end, so I wouldn't recommend using it with bass. Price incudes postage to mainland UK.

That's what I like about them 😅
