So what did they charge you to pack the CW-938 ? 
I owned one of these years ago...there was a well known collector, IIR in Brooklyn, who wanted it soooo bad.....he sent me some pages of supposed
offerings copied right out of the Feb. '44 Radio News, and I'm sure he didn't have the gear to trade, so I still am perplexed what the game was.... was
it to keep the fish on the hook, or to make me feel bad that I'd lost out on a good trade ? i don't recall what the final deal was, was it cash or trade? 
Anyway he had a local minion pick up the thing for him and so it was out of my hands. I'm sure he has gone on to his reward on another plane of being 
by now....thus endeth all empires, a lesson perhaps.
I digress.
I'll have to look up the "Nick Danger" adventures, sounds like my kind of humor.

I have one  guy at the  fed x  I trust to pack stuff... if  he is not there  I came  back another day!!
 
I had a ww1 western electric cw 938 ?  sub chaser  transceiver  from  ww1  that weighed 60  lns... that  was  extra to our needs and needed  cleaning.  He  built a  box out of another one and  really  padded the  thing  in...  wonderful  work... was better tan me  horsing around a  60 lb  thing to pack... 
 
You find the right  people   you  do  well.
 
... or as  Firesign Theatre stated in 
"The Further Adventures Of Nick Danger" -inferior people  should not be employed...
 
In Fed X and  UPS  stores  have seen   things  dropped  while  packing etc...  and the employee   just  sortta  shrugs picks the object up and SLAPS it onto the packing table. 
 
Know  your  packer and  you will do well....
