MSDS Sheets For Shipping Speakers Internationally?


Hello,

I purchased a pair of speakers from a seller overseas who is getting grief from the shipping company over needing MSDS certification for them.  The speakers are Harbeth.  The seller contacted Harbeth about this and was told that no such certificate has ever been required for their speakers.  
Anyone ever experience this?  What would you do to resolve it?

Thanks!

Magnets in speakers are not classified as hazardous materials, ship speakers airfreight all the time, even receive drivers from overseas cases and cases of them.   

In some instances you will need to place a handling label on them but thats just so that the airline personnel knows how to handle this shipment

I bought a pair of Focal Sopra No2 speakers from France when they were a brand new model.  They have beryllium tweeters, and I'm guessing the EU has regulations about notifying customers when a product contains potentially hazardous materials, with warnings not to touch the drivers with bare hands.
I jokingly asked my dealer if I should refrain from listening at high volumes, that it might vaporize the beryllium, funny thing, he thought I was serious!
The speakers arrived two days ago safely.  I created my own MSDS sheets and had the shipper put the appropriate safety labels on the cartons.  
Thanks to all who offered advice.  
After many headaches I am now happily sitting and listening to my new (to me) Harbeth 40.1's.  They say that nothing worth anything in life comes easily.
