[QUOTE="yauman, post: 240656, member: 15418"] No, you should trust them on this - they must have a lot more experience with the shipping system than you and I do. They must ship hundreds of these repair a month and if they get broken with shipping, they would have packed it different. I think they got it right - as in my experience with shipping to Tamron and getting it back barely packed - so those of us who are amateurs in shipping stuff overdo it greatly - spending too much on the postage by overpacking. Canon shipped back my colleague's speedlite sent in for warrantee repair in just a padded envelope. She sent it in with the original box and packing! The pros know how to do it. I get very fragile stuff ordered from Amazon and is always quite amazed at how little packing they get away with. So basically companies who do a lot of shipping knows how to pack it just right for shipping to pay the minimal weight charges. [/QUOTE]
