Dreweatts first-ever timed Online Urban Ed. Sale, by Phear Loathing on Dec 12, 2011 7:46:10 GMT 1, Not sure if this situation is somewhat different being that there are no pick ups allowed. They basically just told me who would be shipping the print.
I also asked the question about the insurance and they assured me that the shipping company is liable for the piece.

Dreweatts first-ever timed Online Urban Ed. Sale, by Phear Loathing on Dec 21, 2011 20:45:09 GMT 1, Came, glass destroyed, framed dinged up really bad.
Fortunately, the piece came largely unscathed. Dusted the glass bits off with a micro-fiber cloth.
For a second there it looked like I had bought the "snowing" version of flags.

Dreweatts first-ever timed Online Urban Ed. Sale, by Phear Loathing on Dec 22, 2011 7:45:29 GMT 1, It was packed actually fairly well. Came wrapped in tons of bubble wrap inside a cardboard box.
The glass was all taped down so it didn't shatter all over the place. Just cracked into a million little cracks.
the damage was just a few scratches in a couple places that I doubt were there before. On the flip side, it is still probably one of the least damaged flags I have seen. No dents, no fingerprints, no smudges. Just a couple scratches in the black..
I mean what can ask for from Drewatts? I don't want to ship it back too badly, but it still sucks it's damaged.
I hate this stuff!

Get it on the wall mate and enjoy!!!!!

Dreweatts first-ever timed Online Urban Ed. Sale, by Phear Loathing on Dec 22, 2011 15:14:43 GMT 1, I will be just getting it on the wall to enjoy. Kind of a pathetic a major auction house can't get this right.... considering a collector (fingerz) can get it sent just fine, but they can't.
They also were not upfront about everything being acid free with the frame job, they said "oh yes, it was framed with entirely acid free materials."
I can tell from the mat they used this was not the case. Not to mention the raw wood from the frame was exposed (not lined with acid free lining tape.
They charged me a damn arm and a leg for all this shipping too.
oh well. Guess I should just be happy I don't have bigger issues with it.
and in the end, it is only a piece of art. Bigger worries in the world going on!
