Tough spot.  I see good/bad of both ways.

If you can't do the time, don't do the crime as they say.  In this case you bought used, these things happens with used stuff.  Not that can't happen with new, I mean look how many presses ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR WUBYAAAAAAAAAA BEEEEEEEEEEE has dropped.  Talking more about like true professional companies. 

Sorry to see it happen though.

I didn't see it drop just a loud thud and what sounded like a little girl screaming when seeing a spider ;D

This sucks having to look at this trashed press in pieces spread across 6 pallets and not being able to do anything about it.

I wonder if he has an installer come in and install everything that is usable and have the machine running for him if he can also roll the tech charges into his claim. He could say that he intended to do the install himself but then had to hire a tech because of the damage.

Probably would depend on the terms of the insurance on the goods.  I would assume no.  In other words I would assume if the goods are worth X, he cant make more than X on the deal. 

I think for me if the press has been hit that hard in any place I wouldn't want it at that point and I would push hard for it to be "totaled".  I think with the age of the machine that could help his case.  "Parts are hard to get".  (even though not totally true).

Sorry to hear about your problems......

As a former insurance adjuster I can tell trucking (and moving company) insurance claims sucked...They find every possible way to "squirm" out of paying claims or blame them on someone else........You will probably need a lawyer......And with most claims like this, any costs to prove your claim are usually not covered......

Good luck....

I've yet to see an insurance claim that someone didn't try and squirm out of.

The Dreamer is nearby. A few hours away probably. But had a local M&R tech out 2 weeks ago and haven't heard back. Something tells me they want no part in this, I guess that's understandable seeing that they didn't sell it to me.

I have checked our service reports and dont see a service call from our group or a request. What was the technicians name?

He turned it in to his manager who had not processed it. You should get a quote shortly. I still think its a waste of money to buy this machine but I understand the reasoning.
