Roger K5ALU Top Shelf Buyer
Posted: Fri Jul 06, 2018 5:47 pm
Roger bought my AL-811 and patiently allowed me to pack the amp and tubes in two separate boxes to what I thought was sufficient packaging. I was seriously concerned about potential damage during shipment. With packing complete, Roger sent two pre-paid shipping labels that I simply attached to the boxes and delivered to the UPS store. Couldn't have been easier.
As an aside, the tubes were each packed in 3 layers of bubble wrap, then boxed. Those boxes were placed in a larger box with 2-3" of peanuts on all six sides. Roger sent a picture of the tube box that gave the suggestion the fine folks at UPS used it as a rugby ball. Roger related the box containing the amp, which was similarly packed, arrived with no issues. I am thankful for such a wonderful buyer. Thank you Roger!
All my very best,
