Got cha, the customer I was sending too handled his own brokerage and stuff through a separate company and I didnt take that into account.

martens-koop said:the best thing to do is to get a bandsaw or a jigsaw with a long enough blade and cut the bass up into 70 or 80 small pieces. Then mail them one at a time to your destination, calling each piece a wood sample. then have the reciever glue them back together. if you do a good enough job on the cutting, the parts should fit nicely. this should cut down on some of the brokerage and duty fees.
good luck.
