Great way of shipping. Do you mark them fragile? So far lucky I'm with the bubble mailers. I feel if you mark anything fragile thats a target to see if perhaps they can break it! I picked up a box today from PO marked Fragile. It contained one antique bottle, a quite expensive one, the side marked Fragile looked like it was kicked a few times. Luckily when I opened it at the counter, which they didnt seem to like when the peanuts stuff came out, it was fine, so I cleaned up my mess and left. UPS is the worse on shipping anything though. I must say I had a great experience on a more expensive (over $1,000) bottle with USPS where the seller sent just a layer of cardboard wrapped around the bottle. Thats it, no bubble, nothing. It made it here! Luckily in the 1860's big medicine bottles were made heavy duty! Would of been a shame to of unwrapped this gem and it be broken. I am still amazed!
