[Amps] re a crying shame

By the way, he did remove the tubes and ship via US Postal Service with
no problems.

A couple of years ago I picked up a SB-200 off of screwbay. By the
description it sounded like a 10-4 good buddy was using the amp but for
$155
I figured the salvage parts would be worth that. This guy after about 2
weeks of pushing him with a cattle prod finally ships the amp via USPS.
When
it arrived I couldn't believe how he packed it. He had the amp in a big
box
that looked like it sat in barn for 2 years, no more than two handfuls
of
Styrofoam peanuts and a couple of handfuls of straw thrown in for good
measure. The biggest surprise of all was USPS delivered that amp without
a
single scratch and it worked great right from the box. A even bigger
surprise was the amp contained the soft start and soft key mods.
Sometimes
USPS will surprise you with the gentleness of handling and speed.
Sometimes
E-Bay deals will really surprise you
