What to use as a shipping box for Rel storm II


I have a REL Storm II that I will be selling soon. I don't have the original shipping box. I called Sumiko the distributor and they want $100 for the factory box. That seems like a pretty expensive way to go. Any suggestions on what to use to ship this 75 pound baby.

I would appreciate any suggestions you can provide.

Thanks

Ask your local UPS if they have one of those foam bag making machines. This is the greatest thing since sliced bread! These plastic bags are custom cut and injected with 2 liquids that actually mix inside to create styrofoam that expands and conforms to the shipped item, and the resulting foam is MUCH harder and denser than those foam peanuts! My local UPS also sells boxes. I've never had a problem shipping with UPS, regarless of comments on Agon to the contrary. Happy Tunes!
