Is a audiophila suicid to ship 150lbs overseas ?


Will it be a nightmare with high risk of vacuum tube breakages ?
The haulier will be airborne and not the "famous" UPS !
Would appreciate your experinece with delicate stuff shipped like a 150 lbs amp.

Iwas thinking of shipping my too-hormonal 16 yr old 135 lb daughter to Alaska for awhile! Any really good carriers for "chilling out"?
Okay, Subar, you guru! Just to just to follow a bit along your tangential diversion, the best teenager chill out i know of is a set of matching headsets and seperate CD players...of Radshack quality........
I always use a wooden crate and surround heavy equipment on all sides with three inch square dense foam cubes. The cubes cost $30.00 for 300 of them and have never failed me. No cutting or shaping necessary-just make a foam floor, set the equipment in, and fill in the edges. Hey Subaruguru-just hold on for three years-with luck, your daughter will regain her sanity.
