Hello all ~ It occurred to me that it's probably relevant to mention that NONE of the items I mentioned in my last posting about shipping damage were procured from eBay sellers or any other on-line auctions. I say this to separate the shipping issue from the eBay issues that get discussed here from time to time.
The Herzog cabinet was purchased from an established and reputable dealer, the lamp was a family heirloom being shipped to me from a close family member in a distant state and the antique cash register was from an antique store in Florida that I have done repairs and trades with since I was a young teen.

In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> I would hazard a guess that the eBay sellers / shippers do an overall better job than the independent dealers who do not sell on eBay. Shipping any antique is an accident looking for a place to happen.
