[quote name='jwbassman' post='9232' date='May 30 2007, 02:28 PM']Depends on the shop - I went into the local Rimmers Music at lunchtime to try and get a box for shipping a bass in and they said no - in fact the manager has a policy of not giving away the boxes at all as they consider ebay a direct competitor, personally i can't see how me selling 1 guitar is going to have any great impact on them but there you go. Guess I'll have to get some cardboard from elsewhere
good luck, if you find a source let me know [/quote]
TBH the manager in that shop is a complete numpty!!!
They have a policy that they will match any like for like price, BUT they wouldnt match a price on a Behringer mixer, Dawsons had it for £40 but the cheapest price he would do it for was £80!!!!
I get all my boxes for shipping basses from the music shop in Ormskirk.
