Need to go post office tomorrow to organise shipping stuff home, havent been to a post office before and dunnno the opening times..

What are the business hours?? Would I be able to go on my lunch break?
Also are they open Saturday??


I havent been here long and have zero Korean, i have to ask about shipping boxes etc home, will they speak any English do u think?

Obviosuly the second question ill ahve to wait and see...

9-5 or 8-5?

open at lunchtime i believe.

yeah, easy enough to send a box home even without korean. they'll know enough english.. and easy to figure out it if you're holding a big ass box with a foreign address written all over it.

thanks! thats cool..
I heard though that you have to get the box from them, im not sending the stuff tomorrow just wanna find out about it. Also wanna ask them what options i have for shipping a guitar if they can speak enough english
sure we'll see anyway

yea i heard that too, im hoping they might be able to point out some other options so with regards the guitar

way back when.. i spent my day trying to find 'federal express' or some other service that wanted to charge me nearly as much as the guitar itself for air service - no ground service apparently.. and i got sick of walking around the city asking.

ultimately i just sold the guitar to another foreigner.. seemed easier.

maybe you'll fair better than i did though.

mmmm.. i hear ya. and i hope so.

I have a great 5string bass that I bought here specifically to bring back home

and I have a low-range Tanglewood acoustic that I rarely use but is handy to have.

Seems like an easy decision hey?

But did I mention that Ive been travelling all over Asia with the acoustic for about a year and it is covered with signatures and doodles from all the crazy mad folk and musicians ive met along the way.. that aint something im willing to part with!!
