It depends if the packing will protect the set from being dropped and to an extent luck.
I had a large set collected by anyvan I took a chance and it paid off, the set arrived undamaged. However had it been dropped it would have been damaged.
Some employees of couriers and RM just don't give a damn and treat packages with contempt . I fairly recently bought a very well made tape recorder which was very well packed. The package had been thrown around and the tape recorder fairly badly damaged.
If the set is double boxed with plenty of packing between the boxes so if the box is dropped the inner box cannot contact the ground you stand a chance...
