Funny shipping notification (STC)

[Captain Simian]

Got this today from a seller on eBay:

Hello Again,

Just wanted to let you know that your item (tele pickup) was packed up today by our expert shippers- using only the finest materials money can buy. It was then lovingly carried by beautiful young maidens over to the shipping dept - where it was carefully placed on a satin pillow and adored by all, as it awaited the arrival of the postal driver. I'm am certain that he, too, will care for it like a newborn babe.. Thanks again for another Ebay transaction !!! - Your favorite seller ever, Danocaster !!

If thats how pickups are despatched, I would sure like to know just how a 52Ri, would be prepared, and presented for shipping.

Ernie.

I used to do tech support for a major hard drive manufacturer. One customer called for another replacement drive because UPS left his original replacement drive in the bushes and the customer's pit bull found the box, chewed it open and literally bit a hole through the drive!
