Aidan63 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago The couriers afaIaa do little to nothing to identify non delivered items, they don't have the staff free to do it, like opening boxes with missing labels to see if there is anything inside to identify the item (you know like P2G used to say print 2 labels and put one inside in case) they just send them to auction after a period of being 'on the naughty step' and the depots will have a KPI to clear the 'naughty step' and get back to clear decks and no outstanding deliveries. The Auctioneers might tip off interested parties, they all probably have someone who deals in musical instruments on their quick dial/email list. A friend of friend (who buys stuff at auction and churns it, specialising in furniture and quality homeware) picked up a fake '72 strat for £60 at the auction recently, we knew it was a fake, but it's a really nice bitsa made from quality parts, would have been £4-500 worth of parts, a little set up and some strap buttons and my friend has a fine playing guitar he's happy to take busking which even if lost will probably have earned him more after a month than it cost . 1 Quote
