79mm wide x 29mm deep x 13mm high ???

I think they meant cm and not mm.

Thanks Tony... a slight error and have changed it now

... could have been a case for the little people though

No no no. That second case is no good. It doesn't have green lining like the first one.

The first case is a Savage & Hoy. These were designed by Liam O'Flynn apparently. I bought one from the company a year or so ago. This is especially nice as you don't have to wait!!!!

It's a top class case...

JEEZ, Liam O'Flynn with all of that talent - piper, whistle player, horse breeder, and now uilleann pipe case designer! It's unfair!!

The first case is a Savage and Hoy case made in England. Dave Williams and Cillian Ó Briain both use these cases

I had two cases by Savage and Hoy once Sizes 31” x 11” x 5” and 33” x 13.5” x 6” outside measurements but now use a Rogge case.

It's a nice case but the seller is only shipping to the UK. Too bad!

Maybe I don't know how to ship it to the States etc, or how much it'll cost but get back to me if you have any other ideas

Well I don't know exactly but I've received several items from the UK. Place it in a sturdy cardbox box, surround it with peanuts or bubble wrap, take it to Federal Express or your postal service (air mail) put the US address on it and ship it. Probably wouldn't cost more than 7-8 pounds, possibly 10.

Probably pretty expensive to have a case shipped to the US.

The shippers go by the size of the box(dimensions)recent shipment by UPS for a 32inch length(can't remember the depth or width)but it only weighed 4kg cost me £123,They were the cheapest!!Apparently they up the parcel weight according to size.
