I had a reissue Model T shipped to me (in Ontario) from New York via Ebay last month.
Cost around $100 dollars to ship, then another $200 in UPS' 'brokerage' fees (what a great surprise that was).
And it had to be shipped twice- the guy on the UPS truck DROPPED the head, broke all the tubes, cracked the wood, sent it back to New York without even contacting me at all, denied the shipper's insurance claim, and forced him to send it again.
Being the amazing guy that he is, the seller retubed it, fixed the crack, and sent it again. The head works beautifully and sounds like a dream.
Moral of the story? NEVER SHIP UPS.
