<p>[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 3943926, member: 84"]After I sold the Guayasamin the buyer told me it arrived broken. eBay refunded their money and I finally got my refund from FedEx (Thanks to ShipBikes.com that I use because it goes with FedEx but at a big discount - they must get a heck of a volumne discount that they pass on) - ShipBikes passed me to their claim dept and the lady there was incredible! She told me the photos to take (and send to her), helped me fill out the claim form, kept track with calls to FedEx & then calling me to tell me what was happening - and last week she called to tell me, "Charlie, FedEx is cutting you a check today!"</p><p>Now I got the check - and FedEx never asked for the statue! I placed the head back on the wood base & it fit in place beautifully! So I put some crazy glue along the edge & replace the head - and it looks great!</p><p>I asked if I could sell it again on eBay as long as I say it's been repaired & they said - Why not? They didn't ask for it back so it's yours to do with as you want!</p><p><br /></p><p>Photos below of the repaired statue - it looks good, right?</p><p>Thanks all - as always!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]322731[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322733[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322734[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322735[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322736[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322737[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322738[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]322739[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
