I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say .... and I hope he doesn't kill me .... but I have
wshbrngr to thank for sending me the vast bulk of my cases for my collection.
I cant say whether he'd be willing to help you guys out BUT ... and it's a really big BUT .... if he did then I think the only way it would work would be ...
1. You pay Shopperinc for the box to be delivered to his door. I think he said UPS cost $32 ..
2. He would get a price to ship surface/airmail to your destination with/without insurance if it is available
3. You use PAYPAL to pay him for your preferred delivery option
4. He sends the box and emails confirmation.
There would be some proviso's that you'd HAVE to agree with though
1. No way is he going to open your box and check for damage etc ... for his own security ... period!!!!
2. He can be called away from home at a day's notice from work. And he may be away for weeks at a time ... and there's nothing he can do about getting your box delivered during that time ... period!!!!
I had a little damage and 2 or 3 game cases destroyed in transit ... thats the risks you take.
I knew those proviso's and indeed it was the case with me where I had to wait 1 1/2 months. But I was happy with the above and value my friendship with him far more than worrying about getting cases in a hurry. So it worked for me ...
Lastly .... remember .... you're paying twice for delivery ... once to him via UPS ... then to you ... so unless you go surface [4-8 weeks] you may find the difference in costs negligible if you take airmail anyway.
And that's if he's in a position to help out. Wive's can be tardy if their men are not tending to house chores because they're always at the post office.
