eBay is rather "strange" place lately, don't you think?

No matter how good you describe your item(s) people don't bother to read it and ask again & again,

not to mention the confused  ones - purchasing items for collection only and than requesting to be shipped. 

I've spend 1/2 of the day sorting out boxes and wrapping stuff, postage and packing it - have look for yourselves what you think:

     

   

 

Shall that got be destroyed - it only be intentional 

all the best

I could not find the BM 2400, but saw a BM 3000-2,Big Smile and did you double box them ?? I always use 1st layer bobble wrap with 1" unicell or Styrofoam plates  cut to fit, and then double bobble wrap, inner box filled out with Styrofoam, outer box filled with Styrofoam to fit inner box.

How far are you going to ship ??? 

Your pics sucks, use a better cameraDevil

Dammit - nothing passes by with Soren, yes did I really wrote 2400? As you said that was 3000-2

well if you want to know, that's what I did: covered switches and panel with protector, put plug in cover and fitted into "antenna slot", dressed the unit in antistatic, after that bubble wrap it, relined the shipping box with triple "floor"  and stuffed the surrounds with cardboards (preventing movement)

put a triple layer of cardboard on it and same principle went for 1 of the speakers nesting on top of the Amp - no empty spaces and the whole bubble roll is gone on those 3 pieces - so in short its more than double boxed, and

it goes to London ;) about 270 Mls on 1 lorry and I didn't want to ship at all

all the best

bob

I haven't got any many left to buy camera - all its eaten up by beast called B&O Whistle

Show off Stick out tongue

in order to make any comment I would need to know how much we're talking about (I've no money at all now - got infected with Beo Virus just few months ago and bought 6 systems and 7 pairs of speakers since Surprise )

I've bought 8500 at Wed and got to many things "going" at present, which thanks mainly to Martin I'm working at, therefore will have to let the BG CD 4500 go as well Sad (at the end of the day got it in different jacket Wink Whistle

We will talk about it at later stage (I may build my own little B&O space sometime ;)

Bob

P.S. I be lying if I wouldn't be properly jealous of that - good on you Cool

Thanks Soren,

means a lot to me (I usually only have mobile and use it for the purpose for which clearly isn't fit, but it does "sort off" documents the process - sometime I forget all together, that's whats called being old)

I tried to edit the BM in title but No go.... (lucky it will eventually disappear)

Items which indeed were BM300-2 (not BM2400) and pair of S45's arrived safely to yet another happy customer

(I only can guess for what the Feedback says: GOOD Unsure )
