I am going to lay it out for everyone. Ice sold some shit and it got beat up do to poor packaging. Nick just accepted the amp, even though it had additional blemishes than in the pics. The CD player was floating around in a box of paper banging around. Nick went and spent 15-20 bucks on a cage since you didnt include one, then spent 20 bucks to ship it back to ICE. so thats 40 bucks out of pocket already on top of the amp. Not only that he spent the extra expense to buy a brand new one at additional cost and even gave you a new Alpine box with all packing material. If it was his intention to screw you why spend all kinds of money to try and use it and ship it back, and then spend another 75 on a new one anyway.
Ice is misleading with those pictures saying it was just inside 2 boxes. I watched NBudros pack it, just like Alpine does with all of the form fitting styrofoam which fits snugly in the box., Then it is packed on pallets from Alpine. So if he shipped it just like the manufacturer does, how is that wrong? Whats wrong wrapping it in 1 thin sheet of bubble wrap and putting it inside a box with writing paper and a 15 pound amp so that they can bang against each other in transit
