I'm selling a couple of bows through another site as I don't have enough posts here to meet the minimum requirements and am looking for some advice on packaging materials. I read the thread in the shipping forum, and agree that PVC is probably bomb-proof, but the Grizzly that I'm going to get about $200 for would require a 6 or 8 inch PVC tube and would end up costing me a lot in shipping. That bow was shipped to me in a cardboard box with not much in the way of padding or support and arrived here in fine shape. So, I'm wondering, does anyone know of a readily available source for long boxes or larger diameter cardboard tubes that would fit a recurve? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
