Off Topic Save Your Balls' Boxes! Beware UPS Store!

[ScoobySteve]

Holy thread resurrection! Anyhows, Andy, did the parcel service you used allow you to ship without a box?

UPS and Fedex don't allow shipping without a cardboard box.

I usually save my shipping boxes, but if I don't have one, I've purchased 5 packs on ebay for about $11 per box. I keep "Contractor Garbage Bags" handy. I always put the case in one of these ultra heavy duty bags before I put inside the cardboard box. Most importantly, I always ship from the "ACTUAL" FedEx or UPS facility. Those 3rd party shippers are utterly worthless and a total waste of money. Not to mention, just an extra set of hands to mess something up.

I used SEUR...they didn't question it...it's just a big parcel after all.
