Hi folks,

Hoping one of my brothers Stateside can help me out.

Im looking to get a box of boxes sent to the Uk, and in particular, one of those Cabrillas boxes with the ship on the front.

I'll happily take a couple, a boxload or a truckload, and am happy paying for them and the shipping of course.

Iv shipped hundreds of boxes from the US, so this isnt new to me, but if its new to you I can give guidelines.

Hoping someone out there can help!

All the best

OK, what are you looking for, other than the Cabrilla box?  I have several hundred of varying makes, shapes and descriptions, and I might be able to help you out.

A few Cabrillas would be excellent, then just a mix of larger boxes. They must be minimum 9" x 6", though prefer bigger (I can get smaller here so no point shipping them halfway round the world!). Id take 10, 20, 50.... whatever. Drop me a message with some idea of prices and / or a pic! Thanks :)

Still hoping someone can help me out....

Roosterman -

I think I've got one of those Cabrilla boxes at home.  Do you still need/want it? LMK and I'll check on it next time I'm home and shoot  you a pic or two.

Hay Hal, how you been? Thanks for the offer - I should have said I scored ten of those sweet boxes so Im good for the moment.

Hope this finds you well,

B

Glad you got them!  Things are good - really good.  Since moving to Texas, I've been busier than ever (don't ever believe that retirement gives you ease!)  I've been selling more CBG's out of an antiques/thrift/museum store in Navasota than I can keep up with!  My conventional ukuleles have taken a back seat because there just isn't enough time.  I've even started a 5 string banjo with a hand drum "pot" on commission.  Life is good!

Take care and stay in touch!
