I had heard new equip can "zap" stuff like that. Just checking... :)

It'll be shipped like this inside another box.

i just shipped a CF card in a sale on the FS/FT forum. Used the USPS with a 99 cent padded envelope. Shipped it priority from Sac, Cali to Georgia and the guy got it just fine.

i've had those people at the USPS lose two packages in the mail - better get the cf card insured when you send it, and be prepared to "prove" the value of the item if it does get lost in shipping.
