Just to share my experience with this bunch of chancers. I had an instrument sent to Holland the other week and it was smashed to pieces in transit. I'd packaged it well in a reinforced padded case, with cardboard on the sides for additional protection and bubble wrapped with loads of fragile stickers. Clearly something very heavy had been dropped on it to cause such appalling damage.
After weeks of sending photos of the packaging and the damage caused the company have refused to pay out, despite my paying extra for insurance. They also charged me an additional surcharge yesterday that came of my account without my consent.
Basically they are cowboys who need to go out of business swiftly. Please don't make the mistake that I did.

Anyway, my sympathies.
Whilst shipping to another country leaves few options other than using a courier, I have a Suhr Modern for sale, UK only (not advertised on this forum, yet) and there's no way in hell I'd use any courier. It's collection only. Last year I sold a Boss RC300 looper, but it appears UPS drop-kicked it from one destination to another as it arrived knackered. I had to refund the buyer as well losing the cost of two way postage, as they also failed to collect the item from the disgruntled purchaser, so I told him to keep it. Hours spent on their website to make a claim sent me round in circles, and in the end I gave up. Never again.
Anyway, here's hoping you get some recompense.
