Hi Guys.

Ive got some interest in a bass Im selling and the  buyer is in L.A.

I am in Norther Ireland U.K

I wondered if anyone could give me some pointers or advice on Companies to use or perhaps some things to look out for / be aware of when shipping to the US.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

Beware of HMR&C - can't remember the percentage but I was shocked when my Veillette Citron arrived in the UK and they added an extra £100+. B45tards!!

I sold a 70’s Matamp to US a couple of years ago. It costed the buyer around £450 for delivery and customs charges. The value of the amp was around £2k. I hope this helps.

CITES. If you bass has any CITES listed woods you will need an export licence and your buyer will need an import licence. 

For this reason alone I would be very wary of selling any wooden instrument abroad at the moment.

Have a look at this thread for more details
