How to ship a processor / CPU

This is the method we use to ship processors and other items with delicate pin contacts.  Using almost no money, you can recycle some cardboard into a shipping container better than the typical plastic CPU holder.

Surprisingly often, processors we order arrive wrapped in a sheet of foam, taped, and tossed in a padded envelope.  Every time that happens, chips arrive with bent pins.  This is a great way to reuse some cardboard and impress recipients with a professional-feeling package, all without spending much more than the postage.
