Shipping etc.

[FRED HOLNAGEL]

Good day list. I'm glad to find out there are new regulations on parcel services from USPS. I've been inactive for awhile. I agree Fed-Ex is probably the preferred shipper on larger items within the U.S. I can not stress, however, the importance of proper packaging. Using all of the services available domestic and foreign, I have shipped over 2000 packages worldwide in the past 7 years with no damages. I think those of us with good shipping results should get together, compare notes and make them available to those who have not been so lucky! Some of my items have been expensive accoustic  musical instruments and transmitting tubes. I do not trust commercial packagers, the only good thing about them is that they bear the insurance claims!  Fred W7PRV
