Anyone live in london that can pick up a guitar for me

Does anyone here live in or close enough to Marylebone London that they could pick up a Kramer guitar for me and then ship it to me.
The seller only has a soft case but I would send you a Kramer fitted hard case and a box to ship it to me.
I would be happy to pay somebody to do this for me as I cannot get to london.

Could you not ask the seller to remove the neck and box it up with bubble wrap to post it?

Obviously it would have to be a bolt on neck otherwise he would need to buy a saw!

I was in a similar situation recently and took the day off work to go and collect. Ali saw it as a day trip to London with a bargain guitar collection added in.

Unfortunately the only days I can travel I have a 3yr old grandson in my care and I cannot travel from south wales to london and back with him it's just too long a journey

They recommend a hard case but even if the guitar’s naked they’ll wrap and hand deliver to any mainland UK address.

Thanks I will take a look into that option.

Did you manage to sort out shipping? I’m in the same position as a seller (guitar only has a soft case) so a tad nervous about shipping. Thanks.

I'm at Marylebone station a few times a month usually, might be able to work something out?

Thanks guys
I could not get any replies from the Ebay seller so unless they reply to me I dont see me buying it but.. you never know they may yet reply.
 Plus as they gave no reply I bought an amp instead so I am a bit strapped for cash until next payday.

I didn't bother as the seller didn't reply to me.

Sorry it didn’t work out for you, but thanks for letting me know.
