I ordered a chassis through the DIYaudio Store in December and you can imagine my confusion when I got a cryptic message from my wife saying that fedex had left the pallet of "my stuff" in the garage. I discovered this when I got home ...
I contacted Gianluca who stated that there had been a mishap with shipping and my single chassis was delivered to Germany while the German delivery was sitting in my garage. Unfortunately for Gianluca, shipping it back to Italy was too costly and in an attempt to help him recoup some of his losses , I have offered to try and sell the parts here in the USA. I am listing these items at a discounted rate but factoring in that shipping will not be cheap for some of the heavier items. I am located in Milwaukee Wisconsin, so anyone local or willing to take a short drive, could save a little more on shipping. I will not be making any money out of this sad fiasco, all funds gained less shipping will be transferred to Gianluca/modushop.

I have not calculated what shipping costs would be and part of this depends on whether people want multiples.
I think it reasonable to take 25% discount off the list price and then we can figure out shipping costs - I will do this as cheaply as possible.
Do not PM me, post on this thread indicating interest in an item and then we can take it to PM for details. First response reserves first option, unfortunately CONUS only ( limited to US shipping )
I do have a full time job that limits my ability to monitor the thread but i will check in and respond to people.
** there are 2 larger ( and heavier ) chassis that there is possible local interest for , if this does not work out, I will list them here too.
thanks.

Hi dBel
I’d be interested in the (2) slimline 02/280 10mm black and the (2) slimline 03/280 3U 4mm black cases.
Id possibly be interested in the bigger cases as well if they could handle a pair of class A stereo amps.
Shipping would be to 06708 in CT.

the slims are yours. The bigger case is most likely gone - 5u/500 ( edit - if this does fall through @chromenuts has first option)
The smaller heatsinks are also reserved.
thanks everyone

Hi dBel
I thought about it...at these prices I might as well take anything else that is a complete case.
I have so many projects backed up from taking so long to build my own cases by hand that I think it makes sense. I can use some for power supplies and etc.
I’m sure most can be put in some kind of flat rate USPS box.
If the 5Us don’t sell we can work that out afterward.

well , that all went pretty quickly - I will be in touch after I have sorted things out and figured out shipping - thanks for helping this cause.
I just saw chromenuts edited post , looks like there is a massive backlog of projects to be cased up in Connecticut

I am always, well, late... I will watch to see what is left after everyone tears thru...

no kidding - you should have seen my face when I saw the "chassis" I had ordered.
great to see all the goodwill on the forum and to find a good home for all the parts.
Thanx for doing this for the community dB… looks like chromenuts has been taking advantage :^)
see some new amps soon?

Hi Dave
I shared with dBel via PM that I’ve been building all my casework from scratch for years now.
I like being able to add that to my projects and it makes them unique.
However, the very long and tedious process I go through with all the sanding and finishing has become a drag.
Plus the worsening arthritis in my hands makes it painful at times.
I’ve got a backlog of several projects that I really would like to be able to move along so I can enjoy playing with them in my system.
I’m hoping that his investment now will move things along and allow me more time to listen and enjoy.

You are a really nice guy.
Im sure Karma will notice this 😉.
Каrma has already been nice making sure unordered EU goods arrived in the US and not the other way round. Which would have attracted lots of attention, import duties, clearance fees and VAT on everything, including shipping and the other fees 😀
Hey dBel84; this is great of you.
Was there something in that pallet of stuff that you could use in stead of what you originally ordered or do you have to re-order?

I am sure everyone on this forum would have done the same.
@ analog_sa - of this I am grateful 🙂
as for taking care of me - modushop had the correct chassis in the mail to make sure I had what I ordered / needed. They are an excellent group to work with and have impeccable customer service.

Good luck with all your projects Chromenuts and thank you to dBel84 for making today fun even if all I ended up with was what I started with.
