Who's gonna be Abby? I think it's a good idea but I feel it should be in BST and stickied to the top. Have to talk to a mod about that one.

Shipping sucks guys, and no more peds on Saturdays come August. At my job I have a second duty of running the UPS kiosk should anyone want to ship something from Staples. It's crazy how often the prices change or vary. The cost has almost double to ship out of zone since I started working there almost 2 years ago. It once cost me $13 to ship a Boss DD-6 <300 miles within the same state...wtf.
I also tend to ship world wide, I have only been stopped once, which sucked. After going to all 3 "big" shippers, the cheapest it would have been to ship a pedal to Schlatte at one point was $50. That's just ridiculous, fuck shipping. Time for teleportation devices, even if they don't work with humans right away.

I don't know why peeps have a problem with it. It's a little more work and takes more time to get there but it's not that big of a deal. Maybe peeps are worried if something go weird they have less recourse?

I hate shipping, but I'll ship anywhere. I usually say "to the usual 48" because I dunno.
Sending an amp to Russia tomorrow. It's like, 4 minutes worth of paperwork, who cares?

This is one reason I hate it here. Tourists EVERYWHERE. I constantly get asked where I'm visiting from...and it's always "uhhh I live here."
