Hi All, I'm a social worker for the state and a single parent, longtime banjoist and longtime BHO member. I've traded on Reverb for 11 years and love using the site. But I need to make other sellers aware of a new, horrible thing that just happened. Occassionally, there's a small shipping descrepancy, 1 or 2lbs., and that leads to a small charge of $2-$4. These "shipping adjustments" are rare and I usually never check them. CHECK THEM! GO BACK AND CHECK YOURS! I looked and a lightweight gourd banjo I shipped with the packaging at 16lbs. was "adjusted" at 35lbs for over $30, another one from two years ago was adjusted for just 3lbs. but was an over $40 fee! The kicker was a Vega Folk Wonder openback from 6 years ago that was adjusted from 17lbs with the box to 95lbs. Reverb credited me in my Reverb account after taking my money. Either that's intentional or accidental, but CHECK YOUR SHIPPING ADJUSTMENTS ON REVERB. Reverb changed when etsy bought it, and now it's changed again. I'll still use it, but sellers be aware.
