A few weeks back, there was some discussion of shipping tales on The List . Y'know, the usual woes: "unique" packaging, damaged bikes, insuran ce claims, International rates, etc... I mentioned in passing that I once received a set of handlebars that were a piece of kraft paper shy of "naked", having arrived in Brooklyn all the way from The Land Down Under WITHOUT A BOX. Here are a couple of pics, just for kicks: http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/d/372359-1/Wrapped_Bars_1.jpg

Oh to have been a fly on the wall at my local post office when this parcel arrived!
