Was it properly wrapped, S-LJ?
It was actually packed quite well - everything supported and protected as it should have been. The tubes were covered in cardboard sleeves. I agree though, foam pipe insulation is the best way to go. I did that once when I shipped a Bertin frame that I sold to BertinJim. Really easy solution.
Mark said that this is only the second time he's had a frame damaged in shipping.
