I like alittle cushion for the pushing, just saying.

LOL....you don't strap the actual amp or whatever to the pallet. You put the item(s) in a carton/crate and strap that to the pallet. Freight shipping can be very reasonably priced as they don't like empty space on their trucks. Shipping those amps from coast to coast would probably run about $300.00.Political Correctness'.........defined

Makes sense, the only thing I have ever had delivered like that was a rather large drill press.
Tractor trailer showed up in front of my house with a hydraulic tailgate.
I swear it took both of us, and multiple cuss words to get that damn thing in the house.
He was nice enough to help me (he did not have too), and we "got er did"!Testing

The only reason I would not cut my big toe off for that McIntosh CDP is because State Law here requires you call a "Toe Truck".:cool:Testing

I DOUBT he'll find any real twins in southern cal.
This guy is a major pinhead, investing in gear that expensive, and putting it on top of a couple of bookshelves from Big Lots:eek:
That's just hackalicious!:rolleyes:I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE! -
That was my thought as well... this guy's house looks like it hasn't seen an update since 1952. Bet the house is no more than 75k, het he has 100k+ in gear there. His priorities in life are out of whack to say the least.I DOUBT he'll find any real twins in southern cal.

Tony my man, Here in SoCal, they did a study on the women here and found that the average Corvette is made with less plastic content than the women. They may look good and all , but if you get into trouble with one, pray there is a bodyshop close by.:cheesygrin:The Gear...
