Ok want to see a recent delivery from Old Dominion Freight on a Recumbant Exercise bike that cost $4,861.15. Now this item was dropped shipped from a third party vendor in Michigan and the trucking company in Michigan sub out the cross county ride to Old Dominon as 90% of trucking companies do. These pics were taken minutes after I lifted the item off the trailer.

Yup it happens on a daily basis were I work:

THAT'S how it was shipped?????? Yikes. I thought moving companies who "cater" to the military were bad.

Nancy, I took the pics after I took the item from the trailer, this is exactly how it was on the truck.

Trust me I have seen much worse. This is why you inspect, inspect, inspect the item to death.

When I sent the pics to the vendor who we purchased this item from they were shocked a bit but they re shipped a new item yesterday out to me already and claims will be out today to do their inspection.

This makes my point that no freight company will repack an item no matter how damaged it looks. They pickup and deliver, thats it...
