Re: Seagull S8 Mandolin
I’m curious how long the shipping to you took? I can see it came from Canada but it appears it took the better part of a week or more. Whenever I’ve purchased an instrument in need of shipping I’ve always made sure it left on an early weekday (mon or tues) and shipped overnight or 2-day. Not a guarantee of zero problems but in my (impatient) mind the less time the box is en route, the less time and hands to potentially damage something.
I understand you may not have wanted to pay 25% of the mando price in shipping cost for international overnight, I may have gone economy too on this one. Just an observation, I get anxious for my Cafe friends when an instrument is out for delivery. I even have boxes held at the local distribution center to avoid the box being on delivery trucks, especially in the cold months. That might not be an option or realistic too far out of major cities.
Hope things work out quickly for you. You’ve been patient and understanding. Not sure I would have been that kind, thanks for the reminder it’s just an instrument and this is fun
