I recently posted a thread on how a continental BC'er wanted to buy a bass of mine. I grudgingly agreed to take it apart to show date stamps etc (which I am very unhappy about doing as I am no luthier), sent photos etc only for the guy - at the last minute - to check the Euro/sterling exchange rate and say "isn't it high, it wasn't this high when I last looked a few months ago, can't afford your bass" (or words to that effect). Was mightily p*ssed off, having spent an hour or two disaasembling, photographing and re-assembling bass with the risk that the bits didn't fit together perfectly afterwards. At no point, it appears, could he afford my bass yet he led me a merry dance

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1337427064' post='1659733'] If you have to go to the Post Office to return this parcel it will be going by Parcel Force? It should be possible to get them to collect from your address - they offer that service on their website. [/quote] I was specifically told it had to go to a Post Office and be signed for behind the counter with a form they emailed me. Can't remember whether it was ParcelForce or not for certain but the forms were not like those I have used in the past with PF

[quote name='silentbob' timestamp='1337388486' post='1659353'] I did request a courier pick up, but was just emailed the form. Never mind, it's already on it's way back to them. Just seems a pain in the arse that you should be expected to lug a speaker cabinet to the nearest post office. Don't know what I would have done if I'd had to return the head aswell. Don't like the idea of asking somebody to watch parcel A while I pop back to the car for parcel B. Guess I'm learning my Thomann lesson the hard way [/quote] This is exactly what happened with me with the faulty Markbass combo. I also was not too chuffed to have to drive to a Post Office, lugging it along (pretty heavy when boxed up), and then queue for 20 minutes behind 27 grannies and grandads getting their weekly savings cash out .....

In a rock vein, Steve Harris isn't too shabby

Hi Owen, glad the Clarus is working out I have an Acme Low B-2 (2x10") on order from the US and reckon that will sound fantastic with the head from my Acoustic Image Ten2 combo (essentially same as your Clarus but single channel)

Lovely refinned '65 Jazz in sonic blue at the Gallery (although a near-£6k price seems somewhat optimistic) [url="http://www.thebassgallery.com/product_details.cfm?ID=2292&type=Bass%20Guitar"]http://www.thebassga...e=Bass%20Guitar[/url]
