Time to say goodbye to my BL/BM 5000, sold to Jeff up in Canada, I will drive up to McAllen TX from Mexico city and ship from there with Fedex

First of all I secured the power cable in the jack channel, Jeff I taped the cable for connecting the amp to the receiver under the receiver outside the foam wrap.

Then shrink wrap 3 times around the unit

Making sure the new fronts from Frede will arrive undamaged

 

Then 5 layers of foam wrap

I found some Polystyrene boxes to small to contain the items, so I used only the corners

A lot of tape and the lid on

More tape, and ready to go to McAllen for boxing and Fedex

Forgot to mention, two boxes packed in the same way

Hi Søren,

OMG, colour me impressed! (Notice the Canadian spelling of color) even the gorillas employed by USPS, and Fed/Ex (which is better) will not be able to damage your amazing hard work achievement.

Søren, I am certain that you know already, but I am so grateful and proud that you decided to entrust me with your BL/BM 5000. You must know I will treat them like the treasures that they are.

In addition, I have to say you sure know how to pack a package PERFECTLY!

Tak,

Jeff

Why did you sell? Did I miss a thread where you bought another set?
