Here's what you get when using UPS

Can you return it? Are you going to try to fix it yourself?

that sucks!

That sucks Mark. The damage obviously occurred in transit and it should be a pretty straightforward insurance claim. Did you sign for the package? I would guess that if it shipped to you you could have refused the package considering its condition. Usually a box with a hole in it wouldn't even make it to your doorstep. UPS should have notified you or the shipper of possible damage to the contents of the box. Giant gaping hole aside do the players ship mounted to the base or are each figure removable and packaged individually? It almost looks like they ship attached to the base and if so this piece should be packaged very carefully. At any rate, my guess is the shipper packaged it with the care it deserves and UPS just flat out booted it(literally).Hope everything works out for you. Adam

How was it packaged.

[murphusa]

was it packed in the original fitted Styrofoam?

I have sold 3 of these over the years but always had the original packaging. Always used USPS for shipping.

Original shipping to me was UPS on the ones I purchased.

30 year UPS employee here.....and former UPS Store owner. How was it packaged is a good question.....I could package that all day and have the worst UPS loader kick it and it'd be fine. But that's no consolation to you. Not sure if you're the shipper or recipient. If you're the shipper, always be sure something like that is bubble wrapped and then boxed with 2-3 inches of peanuts all the way around the outside. Not sure of the value of something like that if it was beyond the $100 insurance included. Maybe attempt to escalate it above the initial person's head? 1-800-PICK-UPS. File a complaint beyond that. No fun on anything like that but looks like it's a very fragile item. Hope you can replace it one way or the other.
