[R-390] Heavy Duty Large FedEx Shipping Box

[GRANT YOUNGMAN]

$125 is a bit much.  You can purchase R-390 sized boxes direct from Kubox in Austin TX for around $85 each if you buy two.  And shipping is free.

Well, I bought them because I was thinking about selling some large radios (R-390, CE-100V, etc.) but they ended up being pickups.  Not inexpensive though.  But they are reusable — so you can ship, have the recipient disassemble them and get them shipped back to you.
