Never had a problem with any bass I’ve sent via Parcel2go and that’s from UK, Europe and the USA. Insurance is a very very grey area and I tend to not opt for it, even on basses worth thousands as they would never ever pay out. I believe this has been the case for others on here. I have a business insurance policy which covers items I send so couple it under this (ive checked and it’s ok).
well packaged is the way to go, hard case preferable of course!
