New RMC from GB.......Broken Stock !!!

[Bubba-7]

I sent a carbine by UPS and the box showed fork lift tracks on it. The stock was cracked the same way. The box fell off and was ran over. Not the same as this case. At least it was not a collector stock.

Unless you have really low doorknobs - the box the shipper used was 18" longer than the contents and he neither trimmrf it down nor filled the voids. His negligence. That carbine got a running start, hit on the buttplate, and sheared off in the weakest spot.

UPS called to say they would call back in a couple days to come take photos. If I am lucky this may get settled before X-mas...............

The Carbine looks fine except the broken stock. UPS has called 4 times and said someone would call in 24 hours to make an appointment to take photos. So far UPS has lied 4 times. How can I get UPS to make this right ??? The Carbine was insured !!!

Mike you are probably just out of luck with ups. the standard answer is it was not packed good enough by the shipper.

I say, if you dont get satisfaction and get a claim for amount of money, to get Frank Derrico to fix it. At least you would still have a piece of furniture for it!, and from what he did for mine, and the other work I have seen, it would be worth it.

The seller says he will buy me a replacement stock. I am just trying to help seller with his claim with UPS. Thanks
