Details

I've got a bunch of old strings (mostly Supersensitive Sensicores) - maybe two full sets and a couple of Ext E/C and high C strings.

If anyone wants them for school basses etc. I'm happy to pack 'em up and ship 'em out.
Thanks
Louis

Hi,

Would you still have an extended Supersensitve Extended E, & a high C string? if so would you post to Dublin, Ireland? I have a new Helicore Stark Extended E, & a lightly used Permanent Extended E that I could swap, if interested.

Cheers

Ed

Hi Ed,

Unfortunately I have neither. I do have a brand new, unopened but old stock Spirocore High C. If that's of interest, say US $25 plus postage? The only other extended strings I have are a brand new Sprio Weich E/C and new Kaplan solo F#/D. Let me know. Thanks

Hi Louis,

Yes I'd go for the high C. Are the other 2 strings free? I could send you extended E/C Helicore Stark, just strung for a day & Permanent, used about a month.

Cheers

Ed

HI,

The Spiro is brand new and unused at $150 (or close to it); the kaplan is also brand new, but you could have that for US $20. The Stark and Permanent have too much tension for me these days. Thanks

Unfortunately, that's what I paid for it two months ago. If I could send it back I would. Brand new.
Kaplan's yours. Thanks
My paypal is: [email protected]
Let me have your mailing address. I'll try and get them out tomorrow.
Thanks

Great, thanks so much. Tell me how much I owe you. Perhaps send them the cheapest way. It's a tough year. My address: Edward Tapceanu, 118 Clonard Road, Dublin D12C7P6, Ireland.

PS on the package please say it's a gift.

Cheers

Ed

I'll check if the US Post Office is sending overseas. That will be cheapest. Otherwise UPS. I'll let you know tomorrow.
Tough year hear too. Hang in there

US Post Office was almost US$40. I'm going to check UPS - they should be less. I'll need your phone and email for them
Thanks

There's no more surface mail. All international mail is "priority" now - I'll check UPS today. What's your budget. Strings are $20+25+?$20 for shipping (come to two new strings for US $35 each, which is not bad)

Did you check USPS First Class Package International Service?
It was only $20.50 for me to send a set of Superflexibles, a set of electric bass strings, a pickup, and ten sets of guitar strings to Vietnam last week.

That's what I expected. The clerk quoted me $37.50 to Ireland. Two months ago I sent copies of the same book to Tokyo and London. The London package was $12 more than the Tokyo one. Let's see with UPS. Thanks

okay - UPS will send it for US$24.75... but.... Tracking stops at the Irish border. So, I've sent it. You can pay me for the postage now if you want, but don't pay for the strings until you actually get them. 10-14 days supposedly.
