Bruce,
The box is about 8" by 10" by 3". It looks like the kind of box you would
get maybe a video card in or a sound card. It is a hard cardboard box. It
did not fit in our mailbox so the postman brought it to my door. Keeping my
fingers crossed that you get it soon.

Can you describe the box, so I know what to look for?
