Seth, Here's a cautionary tale. I've shipped two complete bicycles that I've sold on eBay. Both bicycles were very well packed by a established bicycle shop here in Tucson (Fair Wheels). They were shipped by DHL. The first one, a very original Schwinn Paramount 1974 P10 model, arrived in great shape. The second one, a very rare Waterford W-13 ended up with a nasty scratch on the head tube. The bicycle was insured for the amount of the purchase. Unfortunately, I was told by the buyer, that since the carton had been discarded by the local bicycle shop where he'd taken the bicycle to be assembled, DHL would not accept a claim for damages. Don't discard the carton from a damaged item...
