Can't really see the damage in the pics but it does look like a shitty packing job

Expresso 06-17-2009 08:25 AM
well on the brightside, seems like the damage is only limited to the inside of the wheel

Why did he sign for them then

shenmecar 06-17-2009 09:12 AM

Holy crap that's a bad packing job batman!

here is the funny thing.

if u ever purchase wheels and tires pre mounted and balanced from some place not local, that is how they package them to you. they slap on 2 round cardboards on each side, then tape it up. i guess this guy used the same idea but failed to realize there is no rubber tire to protect the lip edge.

... i would still have them checked to see if they are bent. like someone mentioned above, u should see how some courier drivers load their trucks up :o

Looks like the shipper regularly ships with fedex since he has powershipment stickers. Sucks he got ripped off like that.

He didn't. It was left in his front yard.

yeah like some freakin' lawn ornament. that's why i keep asking what fedex has to say about this:(

^^^ the waybill probably allows for drop shipment without a signature.

LOL, if thats true, Fedex is a big joke.
Its like them saying "We'll only ship it if it can be thrown into the truck" when you call into customer service
