sorry to anybody that has ever received my beard hair stuck to velcro.
or not sorry if it's what you're into...
I'm not sorry. I go out of my way to put a long beard hair in the box. And a condom (not used) Think of it as swag.

I recently sent a pedal to frigid midget, without tracking and insurance. This thread made me regret that decision. Fingers crossed it gets to him ok.

The customs form number works as tracking for international shipments. It's like 10 numbers and I guess would end with NO in your case.

It's all good, sent it friday and it arrived yesterday. Lesson learned, everything I do ends all right because fortune favours me.

I received this one time. No, not from ILF. An isolated incident, and hilarious!

wow
that's crazy
Generally ILF experiences have all been positive for me...hopefully others feel the same way about my dealings.
Although I tend to send Skully stuff he didn't ask for

Always track, always insure, and never use the bags from the garage that everyone smokes in. They will smell fucking awful.

Had this happen with a vintage tube combo amp! It was pretty screwed up when I got it, but was able to fix it (after making some permanent mods to a really rare amp)
I've learned I'm apparently one of few people who actually take the time to clean a pedal before shipping

what do you clean your pedals with?
running em through the dishwasher doesn't seem to work?

You must be using the wrong detergent.
