Quoted from bladerunner:Commercial shipping todat is awful.
I would only use a few private individuals for any of my games. Last 3 times I used STI, I had major issues. I do not care about insurance. To me damage to a game like this has no price.
Same here - last shipping event for me was with STI. Complete train wreck all the way around. Significant damage to an otherwise perfect SM Vault and STI simply did not care. Paid out insurance minimum of "by-the-pound". Never again will I use them, ever. Shipping with a Bob Cunningham or other trusted pin hauler is the way to go.
BTW - I've known Tom for quite a while and he is a stand up, quality guy - miss you my friend!
