    I asked this seller if they would double box and combine shipping and this was their answer:

    Hello,

    I do not have enough boxes to double box each item though I will combine shipping. I have packaged
    and shipped hundreds of delicate porcelain items without double boxing and have never had a problem.

    Thank you,

    Even tho I really wanted some items…I don’t think I will bid because it sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. So just in case you were thinking about bidding, I wanted to warn you about it.

      Shrugs…I’m not really a big fan of the gargoyles but thank you for the warning, I always check just in case it’s something I had plans to get! THanks! 😀

        Thanks, dragoness. I was actually thinking about bidding on a piece or two.

          I do not live very far from there. If there is something you really want I would be willing to pick it up and see that it is packed and shipped properly.

              Well, of course you all know this, but when a seller uses that argument, tell them that porcelains are totally different! They are very light in weight,and are relatively easy to hold in place in a package. Remind them that the weight of these Windstones is what needs to be taken into consideration, as well as the fragility. Tell the sellers that large Windstones will pound themselves into dust if not packed correctly.

              Good argument. I think I will use it next time cause it isn’t the only time that someone has said this. Thanks. 😀

                I purchased a wizard mouse from dwaer(seller) awhile back and although she did not double box she did pack and bubble wrap it very well and it arrived in one piece. That is a small piece I don’t know how well she does with a large one such as the wizard.

                That is good to know. 😀
