Warranty void if seal is broken...
Well actually, not if the seal is broken, but if you ship it to another country. But you understand, I had to work that line into this blog somehow. There are much more offensive pictures that can convey this message, but in respect of some of my more un-tainted readers, I have refrained. I will leave you tainted readers in the hands of Google Image search. Though in searching for an apt picture for this, I came across this one. Which is also apt for my blog. Which I also found funny. Which means you will find funny. Shut up.
Ahh Seal. You so crazy. But you have survived all this time, which means that song you sang all those years ago is totally true!
Now where was... Shipping. Ok, so I needed to have the frame delivered to an address in the USA. After assessing a few options, it was a pitstop in California for the Heckler. Manufacturer shipping to California occured in warp speed time. But there was a hold up here while I figured out how to get it to Oz for a decent price (note to self: shipment of large goods from the US = expensive). It didn't help that Santa Cruz use boxes that double as transporters for Rhinos from Rhodesia. Despite efforts to reduce the size by Paul's son in the US (thanks for trying!), eventually I just had to bend over and take it. $350 to ship. That took a bite out of the intended budget, but I am still ahead.
Progressive costs:
Actual: $975
Estimated: $625
If RRP: $1800
