Bob Dobush ships them in a corregated cardboard box pretty well packed with crumpled newspaper all around the tubes so that there is no movement once the box is sealed up and at least a couple inches of cushion between the sides of the box and the tube. They've always gotten to me in good shape. Not to say someone crushing the package couldn't damage them but so far so good.
Cheers,
Bob
