With the value of the AeAe's I'm surprised more vendors don't use heavier grade boxes or even wood strips to the corners and ends of the boxes. It would add some to the shipping costs, but be worth it to get a non crushed plant. I just sent a pup to Ante in Croatia and used Harvey's method only I double boxed it putting the seams on opposite sides. He said it arrived in perfect shape.

Yeap, apsolutlly perfect condition and great packing.

I use for shipping smaller seedlings tubes for shipping paintings and paper documents. Even plastic sewage pipes are good solution and they have original caps too.

Confirmed 100% safe, really cheap, ingenious and extremely fast. Small pups only.
