ill try and upload a picture of the drum skin , but the package is a generic cardboard pack with the paid address and stamp combo!
Thanks for the address guys!
Congratulations! May I ask how much did you spend by sending the skin? Was it in an envelope? Was it heavy? Thanks!
Hi pal , thanks!
As I live in the UK , I used the royal mail 'get a price and send' (
http://www.royalmail.com/price-finder) to print off an address stamp- £2.80 there and I also included a return address stamp that I had printed so all they had to do to send back was merely tape it to the front! £5.60 for send and return...
not very heavy , think I selected the "101-500g" weight tab on the royal mail thing linked above - as its classified as a 'small parcel' its cheap and easy to just give into a post office .
its hard to explain what the envelope is but basically I used a cardboard like parcel that a vinyl record I purchased online was sent to me in (with a tone of bubble wrap too!)
Very in expensive , and at the end of the day ... the great Charlie Watts' signature for under £10!
