shipping battens

I just won a bid for a set of H16 sails on Ebay which a friend will pick up and bring home on a plane, I need some info on the best way to package and ship the battens. Thanks in advance

UPS stores have 2" tubes you can tape together & set will fit inside. It will be $25-40 because of oversize pkg. Pete
Thanks Pete you always come through with the answer.

check shipping vs the plane thing May cost more for your friend to carry than to ship

I believe it was Jenna Meyer(sp?) who sent me some battens for an N5.7 sail. She taped 2 UPS boxes,(4"x4"x4'long) end to end.
It cost me $32 IIRC.
