I've got a graphics card box, from when I purchased my Gigabyte GTX 660, with styrofoam in it to hold the graphics card in place. The card originally came in an antistatic bag, of course, and then placed in the styrofoam. However, right now I don't have the antistatic bag anymore, and I am planning on selling the GPU, so I'll be using the box to transport it.
Since I don't have the antistatic bag, how safe is it to place the GPU directly into the styrofoam? I plan on selling it in person, so the GPU won't be delivered, it will be transferred via a car. Would the styrofoam conduct electricity? My initial guess is "no", but perhaps I should think otherwise?
The styrofoam has a nice and snug cut-out so that the GPU fits perfectly in there. Actually, I have an antistatic bag for a motherboard, but it's so big that the GPU doesn't fit in the styrofoam anymore (because I have to roll up the sides to make it fit).
