You've got to wonder, with stories about such as these, how good of a 
packing job must someone do to prevent damage to whatever is being shipped.

I mean, really... it takes a special kind of skill to intentionally 
'break the metal frame' of a 40lb transformer that was bolted to wood, 
double boxed with styrofoam between the boxes.
