Packing
Prepare to be impressed. We have arguably the best packing process around. This piece will ship double-boxed, and fully insulated, taking extra care to ensure there's no pressure against the face. First, the component is first wrapped in 8mil plastic. Then, the unit is strapped to a plate inside an inner box to prevent shifting, and padded on all sides. We then suspend the inner box inside a double-walled outer box using shock-resistant foam corners. We also take great care to protect the tonearm and stylus, and we will tighten any transport screws. You can be confident that your table will arrive snug as a bug in a rug.
Shipping
This piece ships to the contiguous United States for a flat rate of $125, which includes our packaging and our insurance. Of course, we'll ship anywhere in the world, just drop us a line and we'll give you an estimate – even if you're just curious.
