    pfuuw..
    you can't imagine how relieved i am, i bought ,sold and traded lots of gear on basschat,talkbass and other related forums,but this is the first time i almost got a stress-related heart-attack due to an incompetent courier service... :lol:

    Glad i turned out OK in the end, but this surely makes me rethink how i'm going to handle shipment in the future! :)

    thanks BC'ers for the support to both of us,
    let's hope all the other gear-related deals will turn out to be less stress-full... :)

    ps: I'm glad you like your new bass Marty, it is an amazing looking/.sounding instrument and i liked it a lot, but i'm done with wooden necks, it's all graphite for me now! :D

    PROBLEM SOLVED!!! :D :D :D

    [quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='1047369' date='Dec 4 2010, 03:54 PM']Home Delivery network seem to give the impression that they employ drivers under some kind of scheme to integrate people with no common sense into the community. I've had stuff lost they they say they have delivered where it looks like it was tossed over a fence & visible from the street, & another which was delivered into the recycle bin on a Wednesday night when the bins were collected on a Thursday.

    Hope you get this sorted.[/quote]


    Thanks for the support guys!
    I hope Marty joins in on this topic as he is the one that must feel the most ripped of at the moment
    and might have some other information that might help finding a solution/the thief .

    The story of the guy in the driveway sounds so unreal to me that i was already thinking the driver might've stole it himself as i had to put the value of the package on the delivery papers and if he's a dishonest person it would be easy for him to make it disappear and try to make some money out of it... :)



    *edit: added picture of the red led's

    [quote name='Truckstop' post='1047352' date='Dec 4 2010, 03:38 PM']Eyes peeled everyone. How many of these are in the country?!

    Truckstop[/quote]


    @ Truckstop: It's a custom shop bass, so there's only one with the red led's and custom top like this one.


    Unfortunately the Belgian post office is closed during the weekends, so i'll be there as soon as it opens on monday morning
    and i hope they can find a solution for this problem.
    Now i see why some people don't trust in U.K. couriers, stuff like this never happens in Belgium... :)

    [b]Hi,
    Last week i sold my Mayones Victorious custom 4 to "Martysprior" from here on the forum,
    payment came through fast, so i send the bass on monday using the service of the Belgian post for international packages.

    when i checked the tracking details yesterday it said the bass was delivered yesterdaymorning at 11am to Martysprior's home adress, so i send him a mail to check if delivery went well and if he liked the bass.

    But today i got this disturbing pm from Marty: [/b]



    QUOTE:

    "Hi Don,

    As of 10pm this evening the Mayones Bass has not yet been received !!!!

    I've spoken to the UK courier which is Home Delivery Network well over severals times today and my girlfriends Mother has even got involved as well.

    The English courier company stated that it was delivered at 11am this morning and signed for by some unknown, 50 year old man in our driveway, at the rear of our house. Our driveway is shared by four houses, one of which is unoccupied and we know of no 50 year old man in any of theses houses!

    The English courier company have said that they need to investigate further and need to speak further to the driver.

    Could I suggest that you, on my behalf proceed with an insurance claim on this bass as I need a FULL refund to purchase another bass urgently.

    The last conversation we had with a man called Darren (Warehouse Manager) at the Ipswich depot for Home Delivery Network was that any claim must be made to Belgium Post.

    Don, as much as I'm really, really upset that I've not got your lovely bass, I do not hold you personally responsible for this and thank you for communication and efforts so far.

    I look forward to your response asap

    Regards,

    Marty"

    Hi Don,

    It's has been incredibly stressfull especially as the courier have stated that a man has signed for the bass. We have no idea who this person is and I've definitely not received this bass!!!!!!!

    Please keep me informed Don,

    Regards

    Marty

    [b]Ofcourse i will be going to the Belgian post office first thing tomorrow morning and i hope they can sort this problem out but as the bass disapeared in the U.K. and not in Belgium i don't know what the options are..
    Has anyone encountered a problem like this before and does anyone know what step's could be taken to
    try and solve this quite serious problem???

    I'v been doing lots of buying/selling/trading all over the European continent and have never encountered a problem like this before and i'm quite shocked something like this can actually happen! :)


    I've added some picture's of the bass, so you can recognize it should it pop up for sale somewhere...

    I still hope this is just a mistake of the UK courier and the bass will pop up soimewhere soon, but if it really is stolen i hope someone can find the thief as no one like's loosing a 1200£ investment to some lowlife scumbag... :) [/b]

    [quote name='shantijoe' post='1035032' date='Nov 24 2010, 02:08 PM']*EDIT: already have an offer of 1150£ on a Belgian auction site so all new offers should exceed that offer ofcourse.

    Hiya
    lovely bass but I'm also concerned about the neck size. Does the above quote mean it's now an auction?
    good luck joe[/quote]


    Hi Joe,
    the neck is actually really comfortable to play, but as i'm used to playing a stripped down musicman with a thick neck and loads of attack,
    this just feels a bit too different to me,in a way it feels almost too refined for a big sized hardrocker like me. :)
    Also i'm under the impression that this bass might be just a bit too much for me with the led's and the fancy top and all as i'm usualy more of a "less is more" kinda guy...



    A far as the auction part is concerned:
    as i stated before i'm open to reasonable offers , the only reason i mentioned the offer on the local site is to make it clear that there's is no use in offering less than
    1150£ as i will not sell it for less than the offers i already received,
    on the other hand i will always prefer a BC-buyer over some store owner who just wants to make a big profit out of it. :lol:

    Ideally i would like to trade it with a Zon VB4 or Status Streamline ,but as these are hard to find these days, i guess selling it is the next best thing. :)


    If you have any further questions feel free to ask,
    kind regards,
    Don.

    neck dimensions:

    Width at nut 43mm
    Width XII fret 56mm
    Thickness I fret 21mm
    Thickness XII fret 23mm





    Will consider trades with a nice musicman/warwick/spector + cash
    OR a straight swap with a Status streamline / Marleaux / Modulus Quantum / Zon VB4 bass in good condition.

    There might be other similar basses that i haven't thought of yet,
    w.h.y.g.?

    [quote name='Dropzone' post='1032806' date='Nov 22 2010, 05:14 PM']Stunning, I would be well interested if it was 5 strings!!!![/quote]

    If it was 5 strings i would probably keep it as the 5 stringers have a thicker neck-profile,unfortunately this being a 4 string the neck feels just a bit too thin for my taste... it could be that i'm that used to the big Musicman-neck's that this will take a lot more getting used to ,but at the moment my L-thumb placement just doesn't feel right... :)
