It is good advice you are providing to us, whether for shipping or transporting built models on your own.

Hopefully you will not have to do too many of these trips.
Thanks, yes it was an easy fix which I was prepared for, anyway it's all my bad, I could totally avoid the damage if only I put the box away from my feet!! I have another couple of trips like this, hopefully next one will be better.

My jaw dropped when I saw the damage. :( Glad to hear it was easy to fix though.
