QUOTE(flmont @ Jun 27 2017, 08:40 PM)  Hmm Wrapped in bubble wrap,..how safe is that I wonder look's beefy enough,.?? A cardboard box does very little either. I think they might actually treat it better when it's an awkward shaped part. Since receiving the mount (same as Jim's) I've send quite a few things in just bubble wrap and it's worked so far. The best way to send something is to let the buyer take care of shipping so it's on them. I do this now with engines and trans. I just strap to a pallet and wrap. I sold $35k of palleted 911 engines, trans and two 5x5x5 foot boxes of 356 heads and cases. The buyer took care of shipping and the shipping co. lost everything. Buyer then had to take care of the claim - he was reimbursed. All that stuff must be in a depot somewhere ... |
