Intel Motherboards.jpg

Hi all.
(NB, @T_Minus as I cannot post pictures in conversation page)

I purchased 3 x Intel S2600CP Motherboards and they were packed in a large box.

My problem is the price for shipping to Australia is US$270 and possibility that a bulky package 20.50″ x 21.30″ x 20.10″ could get damaged. As you can see there is much space in the top of the box. This may be a good thing or a bad thing as far as protecting the motherboards and awkward handling.

Should I ask motherboards to be packed in individual boxes (to save space and costs) and perhaps pack the three individual boxes in a larger box (double boxing) for added protection?

I'd hate the MB to be damaged in transit.
What do you think?
Any suggestions, much appreciated.
