Best way to package a CPU

[fleming222]

Just upgraded to a 2500k, so I'm flogging my old CPU.
I don't have the box for it, what would be the best way to package it for posting?

Use the 2500k box? If you want to keep the box I'd say use the small plastic box from the 2500k and wrap in bubblewrap etc.

I was hoping to keep the 2500k box so that I didn't run into the exact same problem further down the line. However just using the little plastic housing is a good idea, cheers.
