Best packing vs. slow shpping
When it comes to packing items perfectly, the Packengers do an excellent job. I have had them ship around 15 antiques to date from France, Italy, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany the UK and NY, and they always arrive without damage. I am always impressed by the quality of the packaging. Prices are not inexpensive but they are also fair in terms of what other companies quote. The negative aspect is that they can be very slow. Usually, I receive the shipment within 1-2 months after purchase. I have learned to be patient, but the ideal solution would probably be to hire more people at the warehouse. Usually, the items take 1 week to pack after arriving and then 1-2 weeks from packing before it is shipped out. I often email to ask when the "ready to ship" status will change to "shipped" and customer service seems able to get it moving again, but the Paris warehouse can be a bottleneck in terms of processing.
