I work with a guy that paid part of his schooling by working for Big Brown as a package handler in one of the big transfer sites. He always says with a smile that the fragile stamps all over the packages meant nothing to them.

(Thought BT's LIFETIME warranty is nice!)
The inner box was dry and think it will be OK. I'm going to send BT some pics. I don't need it right away but now I'm going to have to install it just to make sure it's good.

I don't think I would have a claim unless it found to be damaged. So we will see.

It could be, it left MOSCOW, ID 83843 to SPOKANE, WA 99224 then to Tampa FL. then to my post office. It looked like the package was left out in the rain or snow. Very sad.

I would still file the claim....you do not know if it is damaged at this point. This way the pictures get into the system...

I would also go as high as you can with those images...

We need to start letting these people know this is not OK...

Another positive testimonial for Biketronics. I got a email back from Bethany at BT. She was very sympathetic for the overworked postal employees and that a little water and roughhousing shouldn't bother it. But if I do experience problems let them know because the package was insured and they will hash it out the USPS for me. The customer service from the entire company is outstanding.
