I would be VERY CAREFUL dealing with this outfit - particularly since you are shipping speakers. They ARE, in
fact, a franchise chain - and as such are only as good as
the people working there.
As has already been pointed out in the above posts, they
may be shipping your speakers by a common carrier such as
FedEx or UPS at considerable markup. So ask questions and
check these people out very carefully. Have they been in business for a few years or have they just recently started
up? If something doesn't feel right go elsewhere.
Also keep in mind that for the price you have been quoted, it may be more cost effective to pack the speakers
yourself (most middle and larger size cities have stores
that sell packaging materials of all types) and ship them by
one of two day FedEx or UPS. Keep in mind that properly
packing your speakers is not "rocket science" - and good
common sense and lots of solid padding will go a long way in
getting your speaker to it destination in good shape.
