I worked for years with UPS/Fedex on a daily basis, I don't trust them any further than I can throw them (or this SC, for that matter). They won't insure it for what it's worth, so I would just want to be ultra careful is all. If I can avoid the hassle, it's worth waiting a bit. In reality, I'll probably end up building a crate for it and putting it on an LTL carrier.

I agree with you on that. When I received the box from Fedex it was on the brink of falling apart (with one reasonably large hole in the side... guessing from someone pushing it around or dropping it). Luckily everything has turned out OK for me.
GLWS!
