FedEx Kinko's. What really bit me in the ass was the fact that I didn't have a box that they fit into. So, I let them box them up. The guy made this makeshift deal out of two boxes that was all irregular, and marked it as fragile.

I called him on that, and he said it had to be marked fragile just because it was big and irregular.

Looking back, I probably would have just taped a bunch of bubble wrap around the stands and slapped a label on them. I bet that would be cheaper; just insure them in case they get bashed up.
