Hey dude’s, I thought I’d pass this along.
I know the site has been around a while now
but I just actually used it shipping 2 guitars, a speaker & a loaded 2X12 .
Www.pirateship.com
I have no affiliation with the company.
They can give me free lifetime shipping after this
post if it speaks to their gracious hearts
I saved HERDS.
I couldn’t believe my eyes, I’ve been getting HOSED for YEARS.
On each guitar I saved $100-$110,
I also saved $35 on the shipping of the single 12inch Celestion speaker.
-selling/shipping speaker’s is a bit of a juggernaut.. a risky equation to get stuck into., you end up right where you’re
almost giving the damn speaker away,
-you know what I mean!!
-I saved 100ish on the 2X12
-again saving the funds right before
that damn NUT.
You do have to get up off the high horse and
measure & weigh the box yourself,accurately
or,
-they will back charge your card the difference.
2 of the shipments PS back charged me.
(Under $10 total for both transaction).
-so they keep your card info & charge you the difference on the backside after you actually ship.
I have a dedicated CC for the open ender type
accounts.
You just cancel your account after your transaction,
it’s simple, then just open a new one with your next shipment.
After you pay, you can download the link & print the label right in front of you and drop that bad boy off.
My 1st thought??
When am I going to get money refunded after shipment?
I put the eye of the tiger on my measurements
& throw in some fat, so where’s the money??
LOL!!
I still saved herds and the process saved a lot of time not having to deal with shipping jockies & their enormous fee’s.
NOW when you drop off your shipment at a
highway robbery priced UPS Store locally:
-you’re the cat in the bird seat from now on
They HATE seeing you dismantle their littl’ turn on the catwalk.. one carton at a time
I love saving money in the whole shit sandwich
of a sale in today’s musical gear climate.
Fire in the f’n hole!!
