I guess
my question is one of ease/issues. It looks quite straight forward. I don't think all of the screws are original anyway, so value isn't as much of an issue. Someone in Gay Paris wants one of my chairs and if I can make the package compact enough I can save them quite a # of Francs.
- I take out the screws, it comes apart easily
- I pack in cleverly
- The new owners screw back in the screws and

If by surprises..
you mean the possibilty of a shock mount coming with it, then maybe. Sometimes heat, weight, age, can adhere the shock mount to the base. If you incorrectly pull it off the shock mount might come with. If you detach, find something like a screwdriver with a protectant, such as a cloth or plastic piece to prevent scratches, and wedge between base and shock mount after screws have been removed. Lightly tap to spread apart base from mount without mount coming with base. Odds are though if the mounts are that weak they will need to be replaced anyway. Just a question of you or them.
Hope that helps.
I am no expert though, so adhere accordingly.
