Originally posted by lerxstcat View PostManufacturers ship with minimal packaging because they are big enough customers to have some pull with the shipper if there's damage. UPS owns their own insurance company so they will always try to stiff the little guy shipping A package. They'll deny based on insufficient packing. They aren't going to do that with a manufacturer and lose that huge amount of yearly business. The individual buying and selling to finance GAS? He can fuck off as far as they're concerned.

I also think the shippers' employees are more apt to handle the stuff they get from major customers with care, and toss around our stuff. They probably get reamed if they fuck up a manufacturer's shipment where the company has to work with those customers, so they probably save their angst for our stuff, where they know the company will try to stonewall us.Ron is the MAN!!!!

If you pack around the headstock so it doesn't move, then that's just it: It wont move. If it gets hit, it'll break off of the packaging.
