Hats off to a totally efficient, professional TB seller. 5 DAYS TO SHIP TO FRANCE. I wish all TB sellers were this efficient. Mucho respecto for this TB Seller, a class individual in my book. Keep up the good work. Hear that TB sellers, 5 DAY TRANSACTION TO FRANCE. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you did see how much the shipping was, right? of course it was only 5 days...once you give it to the shipping company, it's out of your hands. great seller, but it's not just the seller that you have to worry about when you go int'l. i guess what i'm trying to say is that there are a few sellers that might not live up to this same transaction quality, but most of them are good to go.

pedulla-2007 · #12 12-28-2009, 06:28 PM

Any time a seller does not tell the truth about when his intentions to ship, and the less than 100.00 item arrives 16 days after posting in the conusa. HMMMMMMMMMMMMM! You have been lucky SIR!

MatthieuM · #13 12-29-2009, 05:46 AM

yes, i been lucky with JGR
I recovered this morning the DB 728, which has just been modified in order to function with the France voltage. All works perfectly, a sound of hell!

pedulla-2007 · #14 12-29-2009, 06:20 AM

His professionalism and efficiency speaks volumes about this seller. He must have had the amp packed and ready for shipment. I wonder if he packed the item as well? You must be living right Sir, every aspect of your sale was positive. Credit to Fedex also. Congrats on an amazing deal!

JGR · #15 01-01-2010, 07:24 PM

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Matthieu, glad you got it up and running on the new voltage. Enjoy and happy new year!

Let us know when your RBI/RPM's arrive.
