[QUOTE="Kevin Palmer, post: 586920, member: 54263"] Insurance would have solved this before it was an issue. I have sold literally hundreds of things. Many of which have crossed various borders. Unless the item is very cheap or easily replaceable I will not ship over any border without insurance. I bought a Piano from Canada, (Shipped to Ohio). They open it, x-rayed, removed a panel even. They repacked it sufficiently but not as good as the seller did. Fortunately, nothing went wrong other than customs charged me $50.00 outright for the service of the inspection, (that was a surprise). Could not get it delivered until I paid the $50.00 additional dollars. Bottom line, seller did not want insurance on a hard to replace item. It is a risk he chose to take. Wfoy being in the business could have pushed the issue but it probably would have cost him the sale. Over all, tuff spot for everyone. If your talking strictly business and no emotions Wayne did his part. I think Customs created the issue. No way you will get money from them though, just won't happen. My suggestion. If it crosses a border then mandatory insurance... [/QUOTE]
