Yeah usps is ----. I got my itr calipers shipped by them and the box was practically flexible as paper when I got it. Looked like hotrex dry humped it then that pork and polish faggot had his ----- face smashed into it.

Yeah that's what pissed me off a little about the calipers too, not very much packing at all...not like it matters too much with them heave sobs anyway but woulda helped.

Bout a shitton of turbo parts from some guy off here...he packed them a little too nice. Didn't cap the fmic or bov or any of that so I got to spend a bit of time picking peanuts out of the insides of that ----...don't think styrofoam does well in an engine... Not complaining though, the guy trusted me and shipped some ---- before I had the money because he trusted me and wanted to save money. Even threw in a couple things extra.

I had a guy do that with an alternator... but all he did was throw the alternator in there and throw peanuts around it. I had to take it apart and get all the parts out... but I can't complain really, I got a working alternator for $5. lol

I hate that. There really is no excuse for that ----. How difficult is it to put something in a plastic bag? A little bit of tape to cover the openings isn't all that difficult either. Some people are just careless.
