Quoted from rufessor:Thats almost the perfect solution. Inspect it carefully at THEIR warehouse and get any damage noted immediately, you might even find a supervisor present to speak to if there is an issue.
Yes, inspect carefully at point of pick up. If mummified I'd unwrap and make sure before loading it up, in front of their manager or supervisor! Every time I think of shipping a game I remember the airline commercial with the American Tourister ape handling the luggage.
