Warning to bid by Schuler auctions Zürich

Rick, I know that it's a narrow path and I am far away from want to offend Schuler, the won item is very nice and was won rather cheap. But when packing and shipping are more expensive as a personal pick up by a distance over 600 km to an other country there is something wrong for sure IMVHO.

And I only want to inform other members that they have to expect very high shipping cost for won items you don't expect, I've paid a third from the asked price by an US auction house for a much bigger item. An "in advance" query about shipping costs for a rather small item would have been maybe possible but circuitous and was never before required. But I've learned, I will do it next time by not before "used" auction houses.

Regards,
Detlef
