That'sthe least of its problems, look at the frets! They look like metal noodles placed by Stevie Wonder!!!

Pair of vintage Dynatron LS2014 speakers - very easy load so suitable for low powered valve amp. Excellent sound quality if a little bass light. Not the prettiest things so ideal for the shed or man cave. Collection from Sedgley DY3

Neil purchased my Levy strap, paid instantly and great communication, a pleasure to deal with.

A straightjacket would be cheaper and less painful to watch the results of

Upon carefull reflection the seller finally realised that resale value would reflect his poor decision making

Right, finally got this sorted after much phoning around! So basically the only option, should you find yourself in this situation, is to use a third party insurance provider to provide transit cover. There are a few of these companies about but seemingly only one that will cover goods in transit from one private individual to another. The company is called theinsurancebroker.com Tò give you an idea of the cost, for £4000 of coverage shipping to Europe, it's £65. For the rest of the world, £93. Not cheap I know but actually not too bad when you consider the alternative... Hopefully this post will prove helpful - I just wonder how many people are shipping their basses from the UK not knowing they are not even covered by most couriers insurance???

I actually have that album, just not played it through -oops! Here is Mr Miller's version btw:

Will have to check that out. Personally I love Marcus Miller's version - some really lovely fretless playing going on!

Argggh what a stupid scenario! I will have to see if there are third party companies who offer cover for such situations.

I will do thanks. I was hoping to get done advice from people in the UK though so that it would hopefully be more relevant to my situation.

And UPS have the clause in their shipping cover that limits compensation for damage to £100 and lost in transit to £2000. Not much good when you're trying to ship a Ritter FFS!!!

thanks for the advice. unfortunately, having read their t+c's they only offer £100 compensation for damage but will happily charge you a small fortune to insure it nonetheless! anyone else have any ideas? surely I cant be the only person in this situation???

With the ride on mower as a trade in?

Can you recommend a courier please for shipping expensive basses internationally. I normally use Interparcel but their insurance limit is 2K where as I need to ship a bass worth twice that.
