Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

What did they do?!
Shipped out this display to the buyer on Monday and she received it today...In multiple pieces! It's evident UPS put something extremely heavy on top because it made marks into the PVC and had a good ol' time throwing the box around. The item was packed with plenty of newspaper and peanuts...So I'd like to know how this happened...
BEFORE
AFTER
Filed a claim as soon as the buyer received. Hopefully UPS follows through, refunding the cost of the item and shipping...

I had UPS deny a claim once when they completely destroyed a rack I shipped by saying I packed it TOO WELL.
They claimed it was too secure in the box and couldn't move and distribute the force of a "bump".
These places come up with any excuse to cover themselves when their people mess up deliveries.

That's awful!
I know how you feel though..
They busted up my rack system I received so bad when I stood the thing up, the whole left leg broke off! Not to mention all the knick's they put in the edges, some right where screws needed to go.
Attached a picture of what it looks like..
The thing is now being held up by 4 bricks and a bible (we're living on a prayer! haha )
Hope it works out better for you than it did for me!

Oh, P.S. Really like your displays
Might have to check out your prices, but don't worry, we'd find another shipping method

I don't make them. I upgraded mine and sold my old ones. The gentleman who made these went out of business.

Darn, that sucks.. I just realized your in PA like me so I could have picked them up.. I can't seem to find a nice case anywhere! They're all an arm and a leg!
I'm hoping to find a nice used one at Hamburg next weekend, I don't need them just quite yet... but I will by the June Hamburg show so.
If your going to Hamburg next weekend, good luck with whatever you're looking for!

Just an FYI...
UPS still has not provided a resolution. I received a letter in the mail saying I had to show proof of cost of the items (why didn't they say this with the first point of contact?), so I faxed that out on Monday...Wonder how long it's going to take until I hear from them again...
