  • Best way to pack a game console for shipping?

    I'm planning to sell my old Dreamcast and its games and stuff soon, but I'm looking for advice on the best way to pack it up so that it actually arrives intact. Anything I should make sure to do/not do?

    Wrap the system at least twice on all sides with bubblewrap. Do the same with the controllers. The cords and A/V cable should go in a ziploc bag, and the games packed in a separate box, but small enough to fit in the box you're shipping the system in. Fill in all voids in the box with bubblewrap/packing peanuts/crumpled newspaper/whatever densely enough to immobilize everything, and tape all seams on the box.
