WOW! No one mentioned the fact that if you're shipping used speakers, most carriers will not cover then by their replacement value! They insure by the pound. I bought a pair of B&W subs from a dealer in Florida. (used) He put them in a big box on a pallet. I wasn't home when the truck arrived. I instructed my son to open the box and do a visual inspection. Was there damage? Yes he said. There are gouge marks and small damaged areas. I should have told him to REFUSE them. He signed the paperwork to indicate the damage. At that point I was screwed. ( partly my fault for not understanding all of the rules from all parties involved). The trucker was willing to pay by weight $23.50. PayPals rules say I can get a refund if I return them on my dime. Not practical as I only paid $600.00 plus $122.00 shipping. The dealer paid $275.00 for the trucking company. In the end, the guy in Florida ate $250.00 extra dollars to make the problem go away. The subs are on a shelf in my basement. Be careful. Joe
