Shipping 80lb amps.


I have an offer to purchase my 80lb  Odyssey Kismet Mono's  from a buyer in Alberta ,Calgary, Ca..  Shipping from Detroit area of Mich.  

As far as insurance goes. Buyer is going to pay but who's name should it be in for a possible future claim?

Any carriers to recommend? They would just ship in original packaging ( boxes) .

Thanks,

Russ

That will get it there safe.  just realize you are paying about 300% of what it would cost you to package it carefully yourself and print out a shipping label online.

You can tell which sellers use your method of shipping by looking at what they charge for shipping.

Not criticizing since getting it there safe is the most important thing.  I just look at the total cost and decide if I'm ok with that.

Where do you get the pallets and the strapping?  Do freight shippers do that also?  

I'd agree with others regarding insurance. I've heard horror stories regarding insurance claims with a carrier. Don't waste your money.

Delivery companies, what a racket, it's one of the only business's that makes you pay for insurance in case they can't do their job properly.

I’m in Edmonton, just north of Calgary and best would be FedEx Ground. It’ll come across the border from Michigan to Ontario, clear a Customs there, sits in warehouse for a day or 2, then starts the drive across country, about 4-5 days.

As a Seller who has shipped from Canada to the US off of Canuck Audio Mart several times, I get the rate with insurance and Buyer pays amounting owing. Once done email them their tracking info. I’ve never had a problem with FedEx either, not sure about State side, using Canada Post is another nightmare in itself.....
