The wood crate inside the cardboard box works well as long as the contents can stand shocks. I have used this also.

Part of it would be gentle handling and not expect it should drop off of a conveyor belt 6 feet to the floor or stand a 100 pound package dropping on it. I sold a $600 clock on Ebay last year and built a wooden crate to put it in. The crate then went into a cardboard box. The clock arrived safely and the buyer was very happy. On the plus side, each phono that gets destroyed by UPS means more repair parts available and our remaining phonos must be worth more. :) > Dave >_______________________________________________ >Phono-L mailing list >http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
