I'm surprised that UPS and other shipping companies dont require bucking magnets.

[CBFryman 2]

A bucking magnet is another magnet attached to the regular one except reversed...basically neutralizes the magnetic field so you can put it close to a CRT monitor without screwing it up...

Neo magnets + computer monitor = lots of fun as long as the monitor is not yours

which is why i want one of thoes 3"x 1" N-40 magnets to play with at school.

They'll ship magnetic things, but they ask first...at least I've been asked before.

When I shipped my SX out I was checkin out the little illegal items to ship chart and in the bottom right corner magnets of size were legal.

big sign at the UPS store saying shipping magnets is not allowed yet UPS has shipping codes for magnets.

it also says no batteries but i think im getting my yellwo top via UPS.

Nah , it's protection against their sortation systems. Most are driven by linear motors. Strong magnetic fields will sometimes interfere with them

I wonder if that's ever happened yet. That'll be hilarious.

They use carousel tilt tray sortation system in most of their facilities.

They will accept them and ship them. But they handle them like larger items and sort them by hand

[ramos 2]

Which gives them more of a chance to kick them around like a soccer ball

[JimJ 11]

Now that's something I didn't know.

can one of you fellas check my math in the Stereo Integrity section for my enclosure?

If they kicked a Neo-motored DD around, I feel bad for the guy who goes for the header
