@Randalljax I can pay for the fastest shipping option. Do you think that'd make a difference?
You should be able to get it in 2 days within the US (or maybe overnight if you ask them) from when you order. I ordered in Canada and got mine in 3 days.@Randalljax I can pay for the fastest shipping option. Do you think that'd make a difference?
I do a lot of overseas business. So my suggestion is, if you are legit, go to a Chicago bank with cash. Tell them you want to do a bank wire transfer from that bank to Fractal. You will have to pay a fee. Once they receive the money with all shipping fees etc., they ship signature required to your hotel. Of course you would have to confirm this with Fractal in advance. This is a safe way for everyone. And you can trust Fractal to ship your product if they agree. This would also be better than sending a stranger your money.@Randalljax I can pay for the fastest shipping option. Do you think that'd make a difference?
@Tommy Tempest thanks man, I'll go that route. Do any of you guys have their phone #? not being able to find it.
@Capt Nasty I see where you're coming from. I'll be sharing a picture with the AXE FX once I get it, just to avoid you people thinking I'm a scammer
Thanks again, lots of people willing to help.
I doubt any music shop would do that, but who knows I guess.If you are for real, go to a music shop close by to where you are staying, and talk them into letting you buy an Axe FX from them by you paying for the unit and express shipping (to the shop), and them receiving the unit. From there, you should have one in a couple of days.
Thanks

Due to money laundering issues a us bank will not wire money unless you have an account with them. I work for a us bank, so I speak from first hand experience.I do a lot of overseas business.

Not totally true. Only in certain situations will some banks deny it. The banks I have used, have always transferred for me as long as I had proper ID and filled out the necessary paperwork. Form 8105-A, etc.).Due to money laundering issues a us bank will not wire money unless you have an account with them. I work for a us bank, so I speak from first hand experience.
That is your solution right there probably or even the hotel itself. The UPS store or hotel charges you the amount they will pay on your behalf plus a fee so 'they' are ordering the Axe, which keeps Fractal happy, and they hand it, or ship it, to you depending on how quickly Fractal gets it to them. Certainly in a city as big as Chicago there is a company that buys items for people. Maybe an Importer (even though Fractal is in the states).You could have the item shipped direct to a UPS Customer Center. That's what I did.
To clarify: Not a UPS Store, but a UPS Customer Center. I've ordered the Fractal items as usual and just used the UPS CC as the shipping address.You could have the item shipped direct to a UPS Customer Center. That's what I did.
But the account was created ten days before that first post.I understand your concern about my post not being legitimate, but it is at a 100%; didn't have the need to creating an account until I placed the order.
Still waiting for that one.I'll be sharing a picture with the AXE FX once I get it, just to avoid you people thinking I'm a scammer
