Default Shipping Question

Hi, just a quickie...

We go to Melbourne on the 15th and I'm just starting to panick a tad...

May seem like a daft question.... I make cards and all my papers/cards will be going in the container. at the mo they are in files and the dividers are plastic... will this be a problem.. I don't want them damaged in transit....

cheers,

Shelley

They should be fine. The containers are surprisingly water tight. I know I do stained glass work and was worried about my thousands of dollars worth of glass being damaged in transit. I packed it all myself so I could be sure it was done correctly (well, to my standards anyway) and not a single thing was broken. Bloody shippers stole my soldering iron, though! Of all the things to steal, a soldering iron that is no good for anything except stained glass.

Thanks for the replies... just don't want the paper to be mouldy by the time I get to Melbourne... I'll go for the plastic boxes ans silicon bagas and just keep my fingers crossed that the packer doesn't fancy any crafting things... bad enough that I have to wait for tge container.. even worse if stuff has gone missing
