It came in a small padded envelope. The freight cost almost half the price of the tuning fork.

And some of it, like plastic and styrofoam is darn hard to recycle. Schaff isn't too bad in that regard. They use a little too much "butcher paper", but not outrageously. --David Nereson, RPT Dave Hey I agree!!!!!
