My brother purchased a Logan shaper from a guy in Pennsylvania and had it shipped by Estes Express Lines, which has offices all around the country. The seller crated it up, well mounted to the bottom pallet, took pictures of it before the final enclosure was nailed up, and sent it on it's way to Portland, Oregon, where a different, local deliverer brought it to my brothers machine shop in Tillamook. Upon unloading, both my brother and the truck driver observed considerable damage to the outside of the crate. While the driver was there, they pried open the container and surprise! Basically trashed. The crate had obviously rolled around in transit. They will not work with my brother at all, so he will now be forced to hire an attorney to fight them on this. Unfortunately, he may not have insured it. Ugh. I will personally never deal with Estes after the way they treat their cargo and my brother.
