I don't trust Courier companies either. Or Taxi Trucks, or Parcel Deliveries etc.

At the guitar shop I occasionally work at we often get $2000 - $4000 guitars with major damage, squashed bodies, and even broken necks.

It happens far too often.

I remember one day the shock the boss and I got when we unpacked a special order of Acoustic guitars we got in for a school.
11 of the 12 guitars were broken in transit!

I watched in horror when a delivery driver rolled a box off the back of his truck, allowing it to crash to the ground. Then nonchalantly put in on the trolley to bring inside. It was a $5000 Audio Mixer.
Fortunately not damaged (this time).
