I was looking at this auction of so many beautiful unicorns:
I asked the seller if they would box each piece individually inside a main shipping box. I even offered to pay extra for bubblewrap and packing peanuts. Here is the reply:
“I plan on double wrapping them in bubble wrap to ensure safety.”
Can you say shipping disaster waiting to happen? 😕
You might tell them why you made that request and include a link to a horror story. I can certainly see a shipping disaster waiting to happen, and had considered bidding since it was still so low, but not now!

Well, I replied and told them that I highly recommend them boxing at least the larger pieces. But if someone thinks their way is best, there is no changing their minds.
Yes, after their reply, I don’t plan on bidding either. I just don’t think it’s worth the hassle. What I really wanted to get was that Grand uni. Oh well, there are more fish in the sea.
I plan on double wrapping them in bubble wrap to ensure safety could mean thats he is saying ‘yes’ that is what he is going to do and have them individually.
Eh, so far no one has had the lack of sense to bid an ungodly amount. Right now they’re a great deal, except for the seller’s reluctance to ship properly. $160 is about what the grand costs by his lonesome.
Might as well leave ‘im alone on that one. 🙂
I asked if they double box just to annoy him. Who knows, maybe he will get the hint. That would be a good bargain.
This is what I sent them….let’s see what they say
I’m such a glutton for punishment…;)Hi! I would really like to bid on these unicorns, but would first like assurance that you will box each of them seperately (preferably in their original boxes with original padding as most of these are not retired) and then double boxed with lots of bubblewrap and peanuts. I greatly appreciate your consideration in this matter. Thank you!
Sincerely,
