MSDS Sheets For Shipping Speakers Internationally?


Hello,

I purchased a pair of speakers from a seller overseas who is getting grief from the shipping company over needing MSDS certification for them.  The speakers are Harbeth.  The seller contacted Harbeth about this and was told that no such certificate has ever been required for their speakers.  
Anyone ever experience this?  What would you do to resolve it?

Thanks!

use the Make A Certificate sites on the web to write up something that says "inert components only" - add some borders and words like "certified"

then send that to them
So what is the issue? Magnets? I would search for details regarding hazardous materials, you may find information about magnets. What a crazy request. Either that or tell the seller to find another shipping company. You could also contact the shipping company for information about MSDS requirements with shipments. Put the pressure on them to tell you what you need. I'm guessing they just don't know what they're handling.
Cancel the sale.  There are no hazardous materials requirement for the Harbeth loudspeaker, so either the shipping company he is using is incompetent, the seller is making this up, or the seller cannot understand what the shipping company is telling him, in effect the seller is incompetent.  Under any of these circumstances the chances of you being a happy buyer are slim to none.  Walk away!
