Long story short - Ordered a small rack on eBay. Over-paid for shipping, but it's cool b/c I got a good deal on it. Shipping is just 2 states away (6-hour drive one way).
I get a message from the seller stating that I have two options: 1.) Send him more money so he can buy a box to put it in to ship it, or 2.) He can attach the shipping label to the rack itself because it's meant to be used on the road and should arrive just fine.
My response: "I paid $XX amount for shipping assuming that it would arrive in a box. You can either find a box for it to go in to ship it, or just refund my money."
It arrives on Monday. I'm curious to see how it shipped.
For some reason, musicians on eBay selling musical gear turn out to be the biggest flakes ever. I used to sell and buy a bunch of stuff on eBay back in the day, and the only issues I've ever had was when dealing with music gear.
