Why when something as simple as a full oil can can last 40+ years in near perfect shape, only to be damaged just because someone couldn't add a few handfulls of shipping peanuts.... there was only two peanuts on the damaged end.
Thank God I didn't buy a globe from them and it was only a $9 can....

FedEx vid:

The bad part is, if anything was damaged, FedEx, UPS or whoever automatically rejects the claim.

I had a heavy cast iron and glass item tossed over my 6' fence (the gate was locked) and without even looking at the box UPS rejected the claim.
I had another one, 5.5' tall come to me in a 1' tall box. They again rejected and claimed bad packaging. I asked how can they say that if there was no packaging. After a month of complaining UPS finally paid that claim, but paid the seller/shipper, and they kept the money.
USPS is the best way to go, IMO.
