Loads of bubble and packing. Shove it in a plastic tub if possible or something to protect from puncture. Label as electrical goods

who is behind the counter Clark Kent ???. tbh many couriers don't allow many things - blank primers, lipo's gas canisters/containers but they get posted.

Yes it is a possible gamble but if it is packed well it will be safe and "should" arrive ok. Couriers like UK Mail or Hermes may be more relaxed than RM

If shipping "dodgy" stuff then ensure they are packed up very well in a box rather than just a jiffy bag

officially it need to be sent by someone like UPS or APC overnight. not many suppliers send it now other than like that

pretty damn sure if you read the forbidden items in nigh on all couriers they will say no to immitation firearm, blank ammunition & pyro's, no to compressed gas blah blah blah but retailers post them in proper boxes etc.. and they all arrive ok from many couriers

I know component shop use APC but plenty others use Royal Mail - damn sure a box of lipo's from HobbyKing was delivered via Royal Mail

Q

yeah its okay for businesses to post LIPOs but not general people. Its funny because its perfectly fine if it attached to somethign eg (a lithium battery connected to a laptop) that fine? im scared about just popping it in a postbox that they will destroy it
