Probably not the best place to post this, Mods feel free to move it.

Just a heads up: I just shipped a small package at the UPS store, the guy there said he had to open the box, in light of the recent bombings in Austin Texas.

Maybe it’s just because I’m in Houston, but if they are doing this across the country and someone needs to ship a horn, it could be quite a hassle if they insisted on unwrapping a ton of bubble wrap to see your horn is not going to explode. Well, at least not unless someone like Sandoval plays it.😉

The worst would be if they open it in transit and do not properly repack it.

True, I just imagined taking a heavily bubble wrapped horn into a UPS office and having the store employee unwrap the whole thing.
