As above is the best way

Parcel to go are usually best price but remember to insure it !

Buy yourself a new pole. You'll then have packaging for the old one  ;D

Got some postal tubes from rymans, will tape them together and fill with bubble wrap, should do the job.

On a positive note it's amazing what poles sell for on eBay! The slx 22 is already up to £175 after 1 day 8). Crazy.
