Make sure you package it well, cos ppl who load aircraft are sometimes lazy and throw shit upon a plane. which sounds crazy i know but just get a box where u can stuff alot of stuff in!

Pack it in polystyrene / bubble wrap and box up. Label it FRAGILE and get it couriered there by DHL. Don't use the local Spanish post office.

Dont be retarded like I was and put your actual pc box thing in a suitcase padded by t-shirts... it doesnt offer much proctection haha... needless to say there was rebuilding to be done!

Pack both up in polestirine and get it couried.

Keyboard and mouse and stuff can be just whacked in a suitcase with tshirts

The biggest problem is the case, i recommend sending all the pieces in a box minus the case and buy a new one when you get there. It will be cheaper to transport and easier. A new case wont be that much and it will save you a whole bunch of trouble

WTF ? LOL

What if you don't know how to rebuild the computer from scratch ?
And are you seriously suggesting that packing a motherboard with all the connectors flapping about is more secure than with its protective cover on ?

DHL the fucker. End of prob
