Hello

I tried something different this time when I shipped out my Tyros and PSR3000. I got the idea really for the Tyros because I didn't have the original box. So I constructed a double box thing, which isn't a bad idea even if you have the original box.

After being in music retail for 30 years and seeing how some keyboards and digital pianos are shipped, namely, stacked one on top of the other about as high as you can go, I decided to have "this end up" stickers put on the box in such a way that the keyboard would have to stand on end lengthwise, be strapped against the truck wall and nothing could be stacked on it. This plus a lot of Fragile stickers, bubble wrap etc.

No chance of crushing a keyboard this way. Both buyers were very happy with the boxing and the method I chose to ship it.

BTW, most music companies favor FedEx over UPS because, it is cheaper and they tend to arrive faster. The faster they arrive, the less bouncing around they get.

Thought someone else might want to try this next time you ship one and to request it shipped to you that way.

Best
