The BF tandems are meant to be taken apart, but the previous owner clearly didn't understand how. Every cable quick connector that was meant to be unscrewed was still together, while the cables were unbolted at random points. Small parts were wrapped in sticky duct tape, difficult to open. But even with his inflated shipping cost and poor packing job, I'm still happy with the deal I got.
To reverse this karma, when I sold my Jones, I used this same box to send it out to the west coast, packed very carefully. The buyer was happy to get it.
