I try to understand all sides. It gets me in trouble a lot as I seem to ride the fence. I have my view, but I try hard to understand others too,,, so!

The shipping compnay is suppose to use ereasonable care in delivering a package. Not all people pack the same Tim S use to come to teh pet shop I helped at to get these very cool styros. Picture 11" cube with a 4" hole down the center. Point is, how can the comapny set a standard on aniamls, which they do not understand, and people all pack differnetly. So, if it got cold or hot, I can see them saying it's a part of shipping.

BUT if it got ran over my a tow motor I'm be stumping someones arse. I had a package delivered to me. It wa a 24 hour over night envolop. What was left of it was in a pastic bag. As I recall only 1/2 was left. And it was dirty and looked like it went thru a meat grinder.

That is not reasonable care, and I DO think a shipping is resonsible with or without shipping if something like that happens. They do have a legal level of performance expectation.


Ahhhhhhhhhhh I feel better!
