soundfan Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 I thought I'd put out some feelers here. I am considering buying a Reel to Reel Recorder that is currently in Sydney. Seller won't ship, so I have the option of using a company like Pack & Send to package and send (probably way too expensive), or hope that a member here might be heading up this way? So, if you are Sydney based and heading up this way, and willing to bring a 30kg item with you, please message me and we will go from there. I would suitably reward. A lot of ifs....... but you won't know unless you ask.
Soundscape Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Hi Chris, there is a chance that some family will be travelling up north next week. I will know for sure in a day or so. It may not be ideal as they live in Nimbin, but go to Brisbane fairly frequently. They are trustworthy people in spite of where they live Anyway, I thought I'd let you know, but hopefully a more suitably direct option turns up for you. Cheers. 3

And the Necks gig?
soundfan Posted March 5, 2014 Author Posted March 5, 2014 I'm well on the way to sorting this. I placed an ad on Gumtree Sydney, looking for anyone driving up to Brisbane, and had a reply this morning. Looking good so far, will update thread as I know more.
LogicprObe Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Geeze...............Gumtree is worse that Nimbinites! 1
Soundscape Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Actually, Nimbin locals are, by and large, decent country people. It's the ring-ins that bring down the tone. Chris, I will post my impressions of Open in due course. 1
LogicprObe Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I have been there twice..................but didn't stay too long. It was OK.
soundfan Posted March 5, 2014 Author Posted March 5, 2014 Seems my listing on Sydney Gumtree did the trick. Item is being picked up this evening, and will be heading north in the next few days. That is unless they've done a runner and I'm a damn fool. 3
Telecine Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Good luck with it Chris, we are all damn fools in this hobby.
