Wow ! Ups did me up too, made a trade my two 12s for an amp and shipping was only 200 miles ! I didnt pack as well as you did but I did pack them the same way manufacture shipped them to me, in same boxes and added more packing. One looked like yours and the other lived but UPS denied the claim. They said I didnt pack well enough! I said obviously, not the way they ship anyways. Now I have a delema I need to ship my Fi 18" team back for a recone and am getting another one. I am scared to ship it ! I still have original create but after seeing yours I dont know if I want to, Pricks are heavy! I think 90 lbs is what shipping weight was. Its about 4 and 1/2 hour drive to FI for me but maybe I should hand deliver it and pick them up.
