No, it is a real address:

2960 East Victoria Street
c/o MERIDIAN IQ
Compton, California 90221

Remember the calculators that I post earlier, its cheaper via vPost if the calculators is accurate.

If you all have friends study in U.K., just get them to get celestion.
Damn cheap there. Shipping to here is GBP30-40

Eminence, Jensen is cheaper in the U.S.
 
I see.

Btw, remember insurance (unless you don't intend to get any). vPost is a bit dodgy (doesn't mention the insurance thing until you start to pay up).
 
I ever ship an item using USPS (insured) and receive the item damaged. It was insured, but both party refuse to honour it. :evil: Can't do anything about it!
 
I'm checking the check out process on music123.com

more than USD100, the Shipping is USD15, else USD20.99 to Singapore
Perhaps this is better than vpost. :?:

You all may want to check it out.
 
I think the shipping function is spoiled: I added 2 speakers and 1 2x12 cabinet and it showed the same shipping price.

Gotta recheck and ask how they pack the speaker if getting from music123.
 
Anyway I'm pretty fustrated by this shipping thing... and listening to horror stories about shipping speakers doesn't help either.

There's an alternative though:

http://www.sammisound.com

Ceriatone (Malaysia) carries them. Am trying to read up more on these speakers before I decide.
 
I generally have no idea about reps of all the US stores. :| You always hear good and bad. I only know MF is under the same as GC in USA, and some of the MF stuff are items that couldn't get sold in the GC stores.

Sammi speakers don't seem to be what I'm looking for, more like budget Celestions with strong midrange.

Enquired both Music123 & SameDayMusic, see how it goes.
 
the vpost shipping calculator isnt accurate, i shipped in a guitar body based on a quote of around $30, ended up paying $80 as they decided to treat the box as oversized (7kg+) instead of the actual 3kg-ish weight. i dread to think what could happen with multiple heavy speakers..

might be interested in an eminence man o war if this goes through.
 
Updates:

SameDayMusic:

"We do not ship outside of the U.S., to P.O. boxes, or to U.S.
territories such as Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. We do
ship to APOs and FPOs at our normal low rates, though oversized items
may be ineligible. We do ship to Alaska and Hawaii, though surcharges
may apply since ground service is not available to those states."

...

"We only accept credit cards with billing and shipping addresses that we
can verify. Your card will not be charged until your order ships. Our
secure server is guaranteed to be the best - and safest - way to shop,
but we will also take your order by phone. We do not accept personal
checks, money orders, cashier's checks, or purchase orders. We do not
offer an installment or a layaway plan, and we do not ship COD."

(I'm not sure if it means you can ship to a vPost address here.)

No reply.

Ceriatone

I got to give Nik a very big thumbs up man. I asked about the Sammi speakers, and he was willing to recommend other speakers which have NO bearing to earning any money for Ceriatone. And I haven't bought a single item from Ceriatone either.

Now, that is customer service.
 
Shipping

Samedaymusic free ground : 3-6 Business days for orders B4 2pm

Musician's Friend free express : 2-5 Business days for orders B4 5pm

Bump.

johnny_be_goode, which one of those are you ordering from? I contacted Music123, no reply there. Sameday policies on the other hand don't seem to accept an unverified (via credit card) USA address.
 
It is btw MF and SDM.

MF have live chat, pretty fast answer, have to find accessories to fill the cart to USD99.

Most probably
SDM, I will get the speaker + an eq...

I tried to check out, just enter the credit card billing address as is then shipping address to vPost.

The verifying process is btw the merchant and bank. Think should be fine.

Will post again once I check out. :wink:
 
I found some interesting and useful accessories on MF, could help you fill the cart.

Pikcard,
Neck Sock,
GraphitAll,
Big Bends Nut Sauce,
Fingerease ...

.

Weight is just only one factor. The other factor is Volume. Even if your stuff only half a kg, but after packaging, the volume is 1 meter cubic, you'll pay a bomb. Vpost will charge whichever is higher. So make sure the seller package it wisely.
