due to several factors in shipping such as DOA and defects,
I avoid shipping regarding to both mine and the buyer's benefit.
shipping of a protein skimmer requires delicate packaging and well shipping.
I am sorry but respectful for anyone who's interested that are out of GVRD.

Sounds like a lazy cop out to me really. I've shipped tonnes of things. Fragile and not. A skimmer is not that fragile compared to some thing's. Box it and pack it well with packing peanuts or crumbled newspaper, put it on Greyhound, shipping collect and done.

who is anyone else to tell someone whether they should ship or not?

Congrats on your shipping proficiency bandit, and your tact.
