    I'll tell her next time I see her, I should imagine she'll see the funny side. She's my wife's cousin.

    Why would you not ship something as securely as you could? You seem to be focussing on improperly packaged items. Why?
    As far as I am concerned,[/quote]

    Don't get hooked up thinking that everyone is conscientious and will pack things up exactly right, I bought a +£1000 bass from a guy who boasted in his add that he worked for a major guitar importer in France. The bass arrived without the case and in a box in the most pathetic attempt to pack a bass known to man. With a ding in it. !!!!!

  3. If a seller expects me to arrange the courier, or to pay for it, I don't even consider buying from them.

    All basses I sell include postage and packing in the price. I've sold and sent basses on here to as far away as Australia and Canada, one was a Warwick Streamer 6 and the other was a Vigier 5. It must be considered that some couriers only let you insure up to a certain value, if that's the case then I let the buyer know to make sure they are cool with it.

    I've sometimes sent basses UK mainland in a case and bubble wrapped, which has been fine. But I much prefer to meet up or deliver if I can. It makes it more easy because I travel a lot with work.

    At present I'm buying 2 in and 1 out. One's going to Scotland in it's case and a box and I'm picking one up on my way to London on Thursday. The last one is coming from Scotland and as I've done business with the guy before I know it will be well packed.

    Would you believe I once bought a £1200 bass from a guy and when I opened the case there were no bloody strings on it.

    It beggers belief sometimes.
