m671054 Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 The black and yellow tote is more durable. the one pictured is okay but can puncture easily when dropped. the black and yellow is a stiffer plastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got dropped packaged flagged broke a case... Ups repackaged delivered motor w cracked case. The insurance is a gimmick they never paid out waited 3 months did everything they said to do. They never paid up said insignificant packing ... It wAs all foam inside n motor in a bag and expandable foam the other arrears where foam was. Anyhow INSURANCE is a gimmick with shipping company.

Save your self 35$ Yep, I've been through this too. If you google search for ups insufficient packaging, you get over 9 million hits. They always claim this in the event of damage. I read one where there was a forklift tire track across the box and they claimed "insufficient packaging". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
