I once shipped a highend turntable from LA to Connecticut, which was packed in its original box with plenty of protection, and yet it ended with the chassis all crushed, the dust cover broken in 5 pieces and the rest of the remaining parts of what used to be a very nice turntable in bits and pieces. Then it took us 2 months after filing the insurance claim to get paid by UPS for compensation. - --- "Greg J.
