| How to best ship big & heavy speakers internationally? Pretty sure UPS & FedEx have weight limits under this. I use uShip for big speakers I've sold, Tyler D1 & Tannoy Churchill. No problems. They're pretty great actually. Door to door service. | |

| Just me or what? My good news is I've had 99% positive transactions on this site, going back 10 years. Only 1 exception, a guy who was a total asshat when I called him with a problem on a product he sold me. Tempting to name him but not into flame fanning. Besides... |
