LFOscalator	Re: a FedEx vintage amp destruction site- I concur with comments about double boxing. The responsibility for packageing is on you and not the shipper. Also, buy extra insurance. I ususually don't get into the mode of dissing the shippers because when it comes right down to it, they offer quite a bargain. The last time I shipped an amp across the country it cost me less than $50. An outrageous bargain. And they delivered it right to the receipients door. Incredible. Sure the shippers could slow down and take better care of things but on the other hand I don't want to be paying $200 to ship my next amp just because some whinners decided to complain about their amp getting messed up. Bottom line is pack it right. LFO
