Howdy, I'm about to dump a few unused boards on ebay. I've never shipped anything that large before, what advise do you guys have for shipping a big keyboard? I've got a DX7IIfd, an Elka Rhapsody and an old Sony reel-to-reel that weighs about 130#s.
Also, who to ship through? USPS, UPS, FedEx, freight? Any other questions I should ask?
I'm open to all advice. I don't want my stuff to arrive exactly how I send it. Thanks in advance!!!

I tried "shipping" too, the keyword was "packing". It seems obvious, but we both did the same thing.
