    I've bought a few on ebay. Generally they come in sturdy cardboard slipcases, with an additional sturdy bit of cardboard inside. With "Do Not Bend" on it.

    Not had a problem so far. Just make sure it's sturdy.

    A 12" pizza box - preferably an unused one ;) - with plenty of padding usually does the trick.

    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.

    Last time someone sent me an envelope labelled "Photographs - Do not bend", the postman scribbled on it "Oh yes they do".
