@dwette I buy from the dealer I trust, local or otherwise. How do you know this didn't come from a local B&M dealer, and they drop shipped due to stock? Just a thought :)
UPS Driver Literally Drops Package with New Hana Umami Red
I just purchased a Hana Umami Red and it arrived yesterday. I looked back at my ring doorbell video footage and saw that the UPS driver literally dropped the package from about waist high onto my porch. Here is a link to the shared video: https://ring.com/share/b8d92b2f-f777-4366-8cca-18459bc6bfac
It was packaged well from the distributor and everything looks fine (I opened the box before realizing this happened). I haven’t installed yet, but I’m pretty upset by this and not sure I want to install it. The rational side of me is saying these packages see much worse during transit, but I’m worried about the possible damage or latent damage this careless act may have caused. How robust are phono cartridges and how susceptible to shipping damage? Looking for some opinions please.

@stringreen I have plenty to worry about, and this was something I worried about until I resolved it a month ago. Nothing else better to do? |
@cbl117 OK, so your dealer drop shipped the cartridge to you. I stand corrected. It’s still not a big deal. Packages get dropped all the time, over the course of transit. It’s up to the shipper to package things appropriately. Most do. |
