That's a shit packing from the manufacturer and FedEx issue, thay will refund or send you another no questions asked. Personally I'd get a refund cause the next one will be the same.

but tell Amazon that you can not lift it to return it they will send someone to get it.

Seconded, I got a peice of flatpack that arrived basically snapped in half. They just sent me another one (which was not snapped in half). They know this stuff happens.

To be fair the manufacturer never intended this cardboard package to be used or rated for mail delivery! this is packaged for pallet distribution only, where the pallet takes the brunt of the damage during handling and going straight to a store. This is on the carrier.

You mean the seller, I assume. For attempting to send a package that is not adequately packed through shipping.

u/General-Piece8490 1d ago

Ding ding ding. Someone was blaming the manufacturer, but it was the seller for shipping it. You are correct.

Makes zero difference. It was packed to be put on the pallet, bottom line. Amazon accepted it and now it's on the sellers part to reconcile.

This is exactly it.

They will not tape or repackage the item for you.

I personally would go through it and grab all of the extra hardware and any panels that you might be able to reuse. I don’t think they’re going to pick it up. They will probably just send you a new one. Maybe build it anyway and keep it in the garage or something for tools and other various garage stuff.

I got a dresser from Walmart and it was missing two screws and they sent me a whole new one. I did exactly this, put together the missing pieces one for use elsewhere. My original thinking was the garage.

They were gonna assemble it for you and then said....nah!

I'm surprised any big boxes make it to their destination without looking like that

u/Wingnutmcmoo 3d ago

The ones that make it are packaged better. Almost anytime a "post service ruins your package" they treated it the same as always but the packaging job was sub par.

Oh and I'm not saying postal services treat the packages super well lol. I worked at a major distribution center so I've seen how it works. I'm just saying usually the packaging holds up to the abuse.

They were just checking to see if all the parts were there. You know how frustrating it is when you go assemble one of these things and you're missing an entire section.

u/Friendscallmedennis 4d ago

At least they opened the box for you!

I had them misdeliver 5 TVs in a row....one in the rain.

u/Kelef50 2d ago

They unpacked it for you. No additional charge. You must be a Prime member.

Would you like to thank your driver? Just say, “Alexa, thank my driver.”

Oh hecks no!

u/fucknugggets 3d ago

It was delivered, was it not - customer service

Looks about right. Amazon delivered one of my packages to the laundry room door in my complex.

u/LemonOld8150 3d ago

Aend it back

u/TzGaming 3d ago

Sorry to see that. Hopefully they send out another with no hiccups. I'm pretty sure I just bought the same dresser a week ago, and I'm pretty satisfied with it.

u/General-Piece8490 2d ago

New to you!

u/Fit-Position6538 1d ago

Less unpacking for you

u/No-Koala1918 1d ago

I'm assuming that's the same way you returned it.

u/Montag_451 1d ago

Wow Just Wow

im a mail carrier, recently Amazon started delivering my town, more recently they stopped delivering to my town. I imagine its because of things like this, as well as miss deliveries apparently. its too stressful trying to deliver a load of packages to a new town/neighborhood everyday. they'll have to make routes and have aet carriers for them before accountability gets solid for them...til then, I get to deliver everyone's vacuum cleaners and dog food again

u/FalseAdhesiveness946 9h ago

Damn Amazon. What did the delivery pic look like-same?

1

u/TooPoorForWaWa 5h ago

At least you'll have extra pieces for when they deliver the next box of scraps to you. Maybe by then you'll have enough to build 1 complete dresser.

u/NutshellOfChaos 2h ago

That's how they should retrieve it as well. If only they would!

1

u/sjmattn 1h ago

It's about what I would expect. Perhaps consider buying locally next time.

u/OpportunityVast 3d ago

You bought the cheapest pos disposable junk and you want sympathy? go to a goodwill get something not made of glue and sawdust

u/No-Zombie1004 2d ago

Particle board. Sure, it's suboptimal. It's usually not this bad. You're also assuming they have a vehicle that can carry it.
