Thank you. That's very convincing.

no way they would pay for a shipment that was that poorly packed.

Someone just said to take the engine number to a dealer and ask for a check.
Stuff is registered. Because of chop shops.

The Fed-Ex shipping label should have a tracking number on it.
This should allow you to track the package on line, and should also
allow Fed Ex to identify the shipment.

If you didn't order the shipment/engine, then I'll be that someone
is wondering where it is located. If you signed for the shipment, you
may eventually have to produce the shipment, if it was delivered to
the wrong address.

If you call Fed Ex and give them the tracking number, stating that
the shipment was dropped off (damaged) at your place by mistake, they
should respond and come take it off your hands.

I can agree with that, the cops in Ft Lauderdale used to bust humps at a
local biker bar (early 70's) by taking engine sn's and VIN's and running
them for mismatches.

South Dixie Highway, what a paradise.

Yea, except that there is no return address in the tracking info. Only
originating location. Really. I can email tracking info to some
trusted third party.

I was not home

I did that. They did not care

Most likely, no one has made an inquiry about it yet.
If they do, someone will come knocking at your door, eventually.

Three times in the last two years, we have had shipments to customers
delivered to the wrong address, usually within a couple of blocks of
the correct address. One of these times, it was three weeks before the
customer called and asked where his stuff was. It was only then that
UPS started looking for it.
I insure every shipment coming out of our shop, for this reason as
much as for damage.

Yep, except in my case it was delivered to the right address.

how could FEDEX know how the item is packaged, it is inside a box...

They accept all kinds of packages, but if there is a damage claim,
they want the shipper to prove that the item was packaged according to
their guidelines.

UPS didn't like the way we had packed a VCR for a warranty return so they gave
us a choice of going away and coming back with an acceptable package or letting
them pack it for an additional [annoying but not all that unreasonable given the
fact that we had to drive 20 miles to the UPS office] charge. They used that
foam-in packing/insulation stuff.

 

I have shipped a lot of stuff on ebay. I have had damage claims. They do
inspect packages that have been damaged, but they do not really inspect them
when they accept them. They DO have the right to inspect the opened item
and see if it was packaged properly, and to deny the claim on those grounds.
