It just seems odd that these are the only pellets that I've bought over the last year or so that have had this issue with the bent skirts. Maybe it was one bad batch that got beat to heck on the way here and its been in the distribution channel for awhile???
In any case, I'm still looking forward to the new offerings, and I think it's cool for JSB to offer these 2 skirt options.
If youve ever worked for Fed Ex, USPS, or UPS, youd understand!
Especially this time of year (Christmas rush).
Their automated machines move millions of packages, large and small, at a alarming fast and accurate pace.
A retailer can pack them unusually well, to the best of their abaility, with an abudance of firm foam, double boxes, and still suffer interior damage.
It happens to all brands occasionally, unfortunately.
Usually, packages have a $100 insurance policy.
Open 1 tin, see damage, stop and file claim, might be a good policy, to advoid getting stuck with a large amount of damaged product.
Blaming JSB is indeed misplaced, in my opinion.
.. lots of moving between the factory and here.. would be nice to have a automatic sorter as last step and while at it a sizer and to push it through the sizer do it by the base and straighten the skirt and base.. then we'd have match grade pellets..
