You have to wonder what FedEx employees are thinking with a 6 foot soild weight bar laying around in one of their warehouses or trucks...? I mean how many do they lose of these a day? You would think they could put 2+2 together and figure out who's package got fk'ed up...? It certainly didn't drop off of the ruck somewhere in Iowa and is laying in a ditch!!!

Similar story of poor packaging.. I ordered a knock-off chainsaw from Amazon. They pack the bar (detached of course) in such a way that it slides back and forth until it punches a hole in the box and slides out. So the chainsaw showed up with no bar. Contacted the company, they can't send just a bar, it's only sold as a whole kit, so I return the whole box and wait for another one. 2nd saw shows up with an identical hole in the box. I thought, you gotta be kidding me. But the bar was just barely still in there! That reminds me, I need to go write an Amazon review for their packaging!
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

Same thing happened when i ordered a set of lawnmower blades. Hole in box and no blades. I got screwed on that deal. I now ordered and have them delivered through a business and it's on them if things get screwed up. Sarge

The world is now ordering everything online and the logistics are not in place to handle the surge. It's a dice roll now on all USPS, and delivery service orders. The new normal as we call it here.

I think Mark is right about the logistics. And I'm only speculating here because I don't know any delivery drivers, but I'm guessing these guys are over-worked and under-payed, which can lead to a don't give a crap attitude.

The goons that load those trucks are a lower life form. Back when I started tech school, I got a job at some massive UPS facility outside chicago loading trucks. I think for most of the people there, it was the only job they could get. People there constantly steal and break boxes open just for fun. If a box of candy came down, it was guaranteed to get ripped into. One guy told me he had a gig putting brand new ipods in his shoe and walking out with them to sell.
Packages that came in tubes were regularly swung like baseball bats, causing the contents to come flying out the end of the tube and get scattered all over the truck. Typically they were things like blueprints and posters and such. The crackheads I worked with thought it was hilarious, and the supervisor did too. I only worked there like 3 months before I quit, it was terrible.
Your bar is probably rolling around on the floor of some semi trailer half way across the country.
