Might be easier than trying to organise a courier.

Well, maybe.

Sorting out a courier I can manage!
I seem to recall having done that just once or twice in the past.

The main challenge is boxing the dang thing up safely.
Which may well require the purchase of materials, the cost of which I fully intend to pass on to the buyer.

My Krell has a bent fin! Thanks to FedEx, even in its factory box.

But I had to ship a heavy amp, so I bought the blue styrofoam from the lumber store, and cut layers, with two thicknesses over and under, and about 6”, from the sides. I took a large box, and cut it down to the size I needed. Custom like. Nearly indestructible. It shipped very well and only cost $5 for the 4x8 sheet of foam.

A beautiful piece of kit! At that price I’d buy it if it were US voltage. Good luck with the sale!

My ATC SPA2 was sent to me by Audio Images, in its purpose built ply box with dedicated HD chip foam blocks, but it still was seriously damaged; indented side panel and inner mounts, and dislodged hank bush mounts.

They must have thrown it around even thought it is very heavy.

If you really care about a bit of equipment, it is worth making a dedicated box, which I have done for my SCA2.

You can use any cardboard boxes if big enough, and score them to size with a knife, and when folded, use PVA to solidify the shape. The process can be made better by using a hair dryer which softens/melts the cardboard and allows the glue to permeate. Results are incredibly strong, but of course that is only a 'shell', and inner buffering/padding is required.

Wow - a flurry of interest today.

Cash with a not too far meet-up has been agreed.

So .... SOLD STP.

Thanks for all the interest, folks.
