Don't ever ship anything big with usps. Considering my (local) usps office had decent reviews and the shipping rates were cheap for shipping guitars I decided to take my business to them. Worst mistake of my life. I ended up wasting $140 in shipping the guitar to its buyer and back because of their negligence. The guitar arrived with two huge cracks on the body of the guitar. I purchased insurance for up to $400. All I asked in return was enough to compensate for the damages and shipping. Claim denied. This costed me a great instrument and wasted my money on shipping. DO NOT waste your time with this company, spend the extra money on RELIABLE companies like ups and fed ex. Just a tip, don't buy insurance with usps. It doesn't cover sh*t. I'm considering suing this company but I already know how easy it is for them to get away with their shady business. If this isn't a heads up, try them at your own risk.
