My Harp is Here

...and looks like it's going to have to be sent back. There's what looks like a crack, or at least, a shoddy glue job, where the two pieces of the frame meet. At the very least, it will probably effect the sound. Still waiting to hear back from the girl I bought it from, to see if it's an issue. Mom is *insisting* that it's not a problem but I think it probably is.

What a load of (*&%^

 

It *seems* that eBay is getting better at weeding out the direputables but in this case I'm sure that girl you bought it from knew what she was sending you. :angry:

 

I hope you get it worked out to your advantage!

My mom and I have both bought a ton of stuff from ebay, and we've never had any problem. I've actually gotten some wonderful things from Ebay.

 

This could have been damaged in transit. The box it came in was pretty beat up. Actually, the woman I bought it from has been wonderful in getting it straightened out, going so far as to repeatedly contact the company that made it on my behalf, and arranging a speedy exchange (the shipping label is on its way as we speak). I really don't think it's her fault.

Actually in her defense I'm not even sure she shipped it out herself. The harp is made by a company over in Pakistan, and they are sold everywhere. Mass-produced sort of thing. Usually they are pretty good, but occasionally something happens to one, it could have been a manufacturing error (they are "hand made mass produced") or it could have been dropped in shipping. I just happened to get a good package deal on Ebay, but I could have bought it anywhere. She might never have actually seen the harp in question.

Cool deal, that does change my perspective a bit. Glad you're getting it worked out.

 

& LW, you know we're not disparaging your choices by any means we're just protective of our friends! :angry:

I'm glad I am getting it worked out too. I can't wait to have a good, sound harp to play :angry:. I also can't wait to be able to afford a couple grand "spare cash" to get a custom made one from Heartland Harps!!

 

And...I know. :angry:
