GSP Packing standards

[beerman_1001]

I sold a piece of somewhat fragile vintage  electronics thru the GSP.  The seller left me a note, advising me of how they’d like it packed-it’s going halfway around the world.

This led me to wonder how well things are or are not packed by the GSP center in Kentucky, before they are sent out to the foreign countries.

On some level, I’m concerned that if the item arrives in Australia, NOT packed like it was requested, it’s going to open a can of worms.

Thoughts???

Once it leaves the GSP, they are responsible for any shipping damage.

I use GSP.

I already pack my items very well. I get many positive remarks from my buyers abut my packaging.

When ever i have  GSP order I always go that extra mile to make sure the item is packed EXTRA well.

Example: What I might normally ship to a US buyer in a padded envelope, i'll use a box.

In some cases it may cost a me a little more, but I eat it.  I figure it's the least I can do.

Do you see what these buyers pay in GPS fees?  WOW!
