    Thin walled Calvin Analla, Jr. pottery
    Les S.

    A brief word concerning Box and Ship, and Greg and Eric who do an exemplary job of packing, shipping, and communicating with their clients. I recently purchased 5 pieces of Native American Pottery from the John Moran Auction House online for over $800; one was extremely rare and frighteningly fragile. I reached out to the 6 or so recommended shippers and received estimates (one was close to 8 times what Box and Ship billed me) that were all over the board. The work was done in a timely manner, they kept me in the loop throughout the process and sent a tracking number as soon as it was available. I do a fair amount of online auction buying and therefore have a good deal of experience in these matters, you cannot do better than to work with these people.

    $19.49 to send this 10 oz envelope 5 miles away via FedEx ground.  Fedex charges $5.16 without any discounts.  400% markup!?

    $19.49 to send a 10 oz Manila envelope FedEx Ground from Pasadena to Atwater Village (5 miles). That's almost 400% more than FedEx charges someone without the discounts a shipping store receives. I asked "what? It's like 3 miles away. How much is the markup?" And bro said "I don't know man just...." And trailed off. He probably hears replies like mine quite often. P.S. They sell bike boxes for $20, but in the same parking lot at performance bikes is half a dozen bike boxes inside waiting to be thrown out, or they're already sitting out... And they're filled with the foam etc to protect a bicycle.

    Painting packed by Box & Ship arrived completely loose with a single sheet of paper bag wrapped around the front.

    Box & Ship Pasadena sent this 1882 framed original watercolor painting wedged between panels of Styrofoam without bubble wrap or other packing materials in a makeshift taped together mirror box. The painting wasn't even secured to the frame so it slid around against the broken glass and frame wood causing numerous scuffs and scratches. There was just a paper bag taped around the front of the frame as if that would help things. When I talked on the phone to a worker they thought the idea of using bubble wrap was ridiculous on a painting I'm sad to say. The person who sold me the painting took out a $1,000 in insurance with them but the store kept coming up with excuses and rules to make things as difficult as possible. First they said they needed me to mail them back the painting on my dime to begin to process an insurance claim. After that I provided numerous photos and several detailed repair estimates from art restorers by email. They first ignored me for over a week. When I wrote again asking if they received my email they replied that since the repair estimates were over 50% of the item's value the insurance company (they don't list who that is) can have "salvage rights" to take it away now. I've never heard of something like this ever before and I've used quite a lot of packaging stores. It really felt like they were trying to just deter me from continuing to talk to them. I wrote one more email providing my phone number asking them to call or email me which they then ignored again. What is the point of insurance if they can just now claim the damaged item? I had no desire to ever return this painting to them; only just fix what had been done to it. I offered to have an inspector come by as well as provided loads of adequate evidence of what happened. It's best to avoid these amateur packers who refuse to take any responsibility. Their insurance is essentially meaningless and they will ignore you if an issue arises. I was more than reasonable with them but they just wanted me to go away.

    Wonderful service, Greg and Eric did a great job from picking up my items from the antique showroom to packing and ship them to me in NY within reasonable time. Pricing is great and not to mention how they carefully packaged my items with care. Will recommend you guys to my friends and family good service great price what above expectation!!!

    Such attention to detail, thanks!!

    Eric and Box and Ship: always reliable, reasonable and easy to contact. I always use him for Pasadena shipments (vintage Navajo rugs)
