    I never use recorded delivery, it doesn't guarantee anything or insure you properly. Special delivery is the only way to do that, although it costs a bit more.

    Sorry, that probably doesn't help much, but for future reference...

    i rang the guy and it arrived this morning.just hasent shown up on track and trace yet.

    recorded delivery will pay up to 100 times the postage costs but this isent guarenteed.


    never again.

    special delivery is the only way.

    cheers ian,

    hope they fit your system and tastes well rob :D

    Bit of a dodgy picture and no mention of what sort of quality they're in on there. Did you ask? Should be ok, but just incase.

    yea it was the first thing i did.he said they were in good conditioin and more or less new.if i dont like them i dont think i will have much trouble selling them on.i dont think id make any profit on them but if i can get my money back then thers no harm done.
