Thanks for the words of encouragement.

Missing Denning, by Standard on Oct 12, 2008 9:49:58 GMT 1, origo, where was it coming from and to? Could it be sitting with customs? If it was international then it may have been shipped by surface which can sometimes take months, depending on locations.
Fingers crossed this eventually makes an appearance.

Missing Denning, by origo on Oct 12, 2008 9:55:36 GMT 1, It was shipping from England to Denmark, so customs wouldnยดt be an issue.
I am keeping my fingers crossed though, and will of course post if it shows up.

I have to agree
why let someone send something to you at that kind of price without proof !
Its retarded !
hope you get it but fook me, unless you know the guy he could have spent your cash already AND still have this piece on his wall....

But tracking would definetely have been appreciated.

Missing Denning, by Deleted on Oct 12, 2008 16:21:55 GMT 1, why would anyone would send something of this value uninsured ?.
its such a light bit of work it wouldn't have cost an extra ยฃ20 to insure it.
i hope it gets sorted soon.

Missing Denning, by Photoxtc on Oct 12, 2008 17:33:28 GMT 1, WOW... I think I'm just as surprised as everyone else that someone would actually send an original piece of art and not insure it or at the very least get tracking for it... WTF
Hopefully he does the right thing and refunds you the full amount as clearly this falls on him for not following a couple of must haves when sending art or anything of value...
With all that said, it may still show up... fingers crossed

Missing Denning, by Heavyconsumer on Oct 12, 2008 17:40:29 GMT 1, :oAbsolutely proposterous. I'm stunned that someone/anyone could take a payment for something valued in the region of almost/around a thousand pounds, why then be too tight to pay ยฃ25 for postage. It's incomprehensible and totally negligent on the seller's behalf. I remember the original sales thread and I agree that it was more likely an oversight than a case of ripping someone off, but there's no excuse for sending something like this without tracking and insurance.
As per Phototoxtc, I really hope you still receive this beautiful piece, but if not, the vendor is 100% to blame.

Wouldnยดt that ruin the whole feel to the piece? I think itยดs lovely.
When I see what people are prepared to pay for street pieces on old pissed on wood, I canยดt see whatยดs wrong with this one. The price was good and the execution flawless.
