Double Bass Airborne Basses?

My question is about basses on planes. I see these websites with some DB's from other countries/states that I'd love to own when my savings are ready but I'm worried that if i bought something from overseas and had it shipped to me that there would be a high risk of it being damaged in transit. Is that risk as high as I believe it is :confused:? Are there some companies that are more reliable with OS shipping than others that I should be aware of??? Also on a similar topic has anyone moved over seas and brought there bass with them and if so how did that pan out?? :eyebrow:


Cheers
