Good prices, terrible shipping practices
Item was reasonably priced and was shipped quickly. Unfortunately, the snowboard was shipped without a box or any sturdy packaging whatsoever. Instead, the shipping label was simply slapped onto the paper sleeve that the manufacturer slips the board into. Simply a thin paper layer tightly around a snowboard, no additional padding or a box. I didn't even get a packing slip. It was also shipped via FedEx Home Delivery instead of Ground, so I was unable to request to hold delivery at a local FedEx store or have the package require a signature. So the snowboard was delivered a little banged up due to it not being in a box, and it was VERY obvious to anyone on the sidewalk to see it was an expensive snowboard that had been delivered. I had the option to return the item for a refund, but only after the company receives the item back and conducts a thorough investigation. They could not guarantee I would be refunded. I stated that if I shipped the snowboard back in the manner I received it, it's very likely it will be damaged further due to the lack of a box. With no guarantee that I'd get my money back, I was forced to go with the second option, which was receiving a $20 refund, good for about 6% of the purchase price.
