Any of you know if UPS Store will pack and ship an LCD monitor? I have a 24'' Apple LED Cinema display that I want to sell online, but I don't have the original box.

To my knowledge UPS will ship just about anything. It won't be inexpensive, however...

Sure they will pack up just about anything you want to send, even a LCD monitor.

The question is,,, do you really want them to. Think about this question more than once if need be.

And the answer is "Yes". As has been discussed here innumerable times, if damage occurs to an item packed by UPS, you're covered. They're responsible for properly protecting an item entrusted to them for packing. That's what they've been paid for.

Depends if you want the UPS Store "Pack and Ship Promise". That's not a slam dunk on a claim, by the way. Just means the UPS Store (which is NOT the same thing as UPS), will chase down any claim. How solid that guarantee is is anybody's guess.

Edit: Well, it's not a guess anymore. UPS will deny a UPS Store claim just like they'll deny anybody else's:

Third Party packers are a crapshoot at best. Got this from a "mail store":

Seller: Not my problem.
Mail Store: That's not how we packed it (Sure!).
