it wasnt bad packing for like the 3rd time. These boxes were torn to holy living hell when i got them. All the wood supports were broke, it OBVIOUSLY wasnt bad packaging as stated in both posts 5 and 10.

i didnt say it was..its just when a UPS employee packages that shit up they can not blame the packaging at all..pay for them to package it, and pay to insure it and they WILL pay the claim should something happen.

**** bj, thatsucks man. don't silicone, why would you silicone your edges on a box, and wait a day to put your subs in, because the fumes but put silicone directly onto the sub??
any progress on the box?

Box is finished, just need to sand it down good. Its Fuking HUGE, and HEAVY. So DONT silicone it? I thought thats what people did when they got holes in their surrounds? I dont mind if i have to wait a few days to put it in, this is the reason i went dual chambered, in case something like this happened //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I always ship Fedex. I know some have had fedex problems but for me UPS always does it wrong

yeah, but if UPS packages it for you, they have nobody to blame but themselves and are forced to pay the claim.

I sure hope so. I'm dealing with a claim for my MT also.

well i have some bad news, i just took a closer look at the other sub, and its fuked up worse than this one. one of the spokes is broken off the mounting ring, and 2 small pieces are also broken in the ring. I will put up pics tomorrow. I will file on this one, i decided to not file on the other, cause i fixed it up with some gorilla glue per instructions from RE. I will call them tomorrow and see how much its gonna cost to fix the basket, cause i dont think i can fix it. Hopefully UPS will come through.
