Shipping a SB-230

[Neil Morrison]

Do NOT! rely on foam peanuts. A good thickness of bubble wrap is needed -
several layers. Many shippers shove parcels off the back of a truck onto the
road and your packaging must be able to protect the contents when this
happens.

As for the tube it might well be a good idea to ship it separately, REALLY
well packed. Imagine dropping it 15 feet onto concrete. Will it survive? How
long will you have to wait to buy one used - for $100 plus?

See

for downloadable packing instructions for many items.
