Mark...Sorry for your run of bad luck. That Spalding trophy makes me hurt just looking at it.

Hahaha.... Kind of funny to read that after 8 YEARS have passed. That was pretty painful at the time. But I'm indeed over it, and eventually replaced both of those pieces with good examples (although it definitely took some work).
All good.... Now let's get back to Jimmy! I'm not very handy with the search function here, but will try to resurrect one of his great original threads.

Broken Trophies
Mark -
You have had some bad luck. The packaging of those two trophies must have been terrible. The sellers should be blamed much more than UPS. Use of cardboard, lots of bubble wrap and peanuts are easy to work with and have protected many items I have shipped without any trouble. Your experiences, in theory, could be the result of broker before shipment. Not accusing anyone - just a thought. Jerry Sage

I think you are probably right, Jerry. Would not surprise me at all... especially in the case of the Spalding Pitcher.
It was very well wrapped and protected. Never understood how that one could break so badly, as the box was not dented, and the trophy had at least 3 of bubble padding all the way around (supplemented by plentiful peanut pack). Oh well... onward and upwards.
