edstraker123 Posted Sunday at 15:50 Posted Sunday at 15:50 Chatgpt has just recommended Lenspeed logistics as a courier to potentially transport my Ricky if I sell it. Having just had DHL destroy a one off custom guitar, I was looking for a better service than the usual suspects and wondered if anybody had any experience of this company and a rough price for a £3k bass transported within the UK fully insured.

Sparky Mark Posted Monday at 00:30 Posted Monday at 00:30 (edited) I had a bass collected by Lenspeed when I sold it on here. The purchaser arranged it, and everything went to plan. The chap that collected was really nice and explained they do a lot of moving of expensive guitars for an auction house. If you go on their website I believe it explains prices for fully insured shipping. Probably the only company I would consider for £800 +++ instruments.

Not fast but reliable and safe. 2 1 Quote
skilamalink Posted Monday at 18:16 Posted Monday at 18:16 Same for me. They moved a bass in a gig bag from down south to up north and it arrived in perfect nick. It was a few days between arranging and pick up and the price is higher than other services but I paid for peace of mind and I got it. The insurance levels are really good too. 1 1 Quote

BassTractor Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago S P A M M E R / S C A M M E R A L E R T Folks, the above poster has edited the quoted link provided by @Sparky Mark, and in doing so has added a new link to the old one. Yup, two links now, looking like one. Just another nasty example of what goes on these days. I've reported their posts, but there's no mod here right now. 1 Quote
