Shipping A Processor

[myxomatosii]

Hi, this is my first post on this site so let me first begin by saying that I hope I am in the right place, if I am not please direct me.. I looked around and this seems to be the best place for this topic.

I just have a simple question: I have broken down and boxed up my computer, sold off most of it on ebay already to purchase a laptop. I have all of the original packaging for all of my computer.. except the processor, the little plastic casing with the dark grey "foam" it came with is gone. So I am curious what kind of replacement shipping I can use and what would be the best way to mail/ship it.

Or if someone can tell me where to buy one of those little plastic cases with the foam like Newegg ships their processors with that would be great. Or if you happen to have one and could send it to me and I could pay you through Paypal.

Any advice or help would be great, I need to get rid of this machine and get my profit so I can pick up a laptop =p

Thanks in advance!

Check your local B&M stores (mom, and pop shops usually have a few). Fry's usually has some too.

You'd likely be safe by placing it in an antistatic bag and then wrapping it in layers of bubble wrap.
