I wrapped one in bubble wrap, then thin card board with masses of Brown parcel tape. I took it to my local Post Office and it cost around £17 to post. Doddle.

when i took my sti backbox off the scoob to be replaced by a decat system, i got some cardboard and bubble wrap.

used the bubble wrap over the whole thing, then cardboard over the oval box, then some more bubblewrap over it all, covered in postage tape for good measure.

that was going to london then austria

under £20 from royal mail to london i believe standard parcels.
