Bubble wrap - Yes! Packing Peanuts - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The peanuts just move around in the box until they end up all on one side and then the box gets dropped.....
Lost an SE/30 that way,

Man, I'd love it, but I just coaxed myself out of giving up my old Mac SE. It's a great computer, and ran super-fast when I ran the system off an external Zip 100 drive!
I should recommend that you wrap the entire computer in "large" bubble wrap and pack with bubble wrap or packing peanuts (if possible). Remember that "ground" shipping companies like UPS won't accept a package packed with newspapers, because it's just NEVER a good idea.

Hi everyone,
� �I was trying to rehab my Mac SE by putting a 1.4 floppy into it
.... �but figured
out the ROMs are too old (86 or so). �In the process I went and dropped the
20 MB
internal hard disk.... �so much for those data files!
anyhow, I got the data I needed off my 100 MB hard drive and have decided to
give this sucker away. �So here's the stats
Mac SE (still works)
4 MB of memory
800 K floppy
1.4 SuperDrive
keyboard (large one)
trackball
Cirrus 100 MB drive in external case (formatted, not bootable, no system
folder)
all the cables
spare internal power supply
I'd like $20 (for the new 1.4 floppy) plus shipping and handling (any suggestions on how to ensure safe shipping?)
first e-mail I get or in the case of multiples, a round of rock, paper,
scissors �:)
