Look what UPS just dropped off!

EDIT TO ADD!
The seller did get into contact with me, and offered to do whatever is necessary to make this right. In the end the amp and speaker cab (pictured here) work absolutely perfectly. No harm, no foul.

Let me reitterate: UPS did not kill the cab, and the seller is a stand-up guy that no one should hesitate to do business with. Good guy.

If it went over a border maybe customs removed the cones to make sure there wasn't anything "stashed" between the cone and the grill cloth? Did it have a "this was opened by customs" sticker on the box when it arrived?

Looks like a hoax-what is the shearing force required for 8 M5 screws?

Not that it really matters, but what kind of amp is it? And I trust that someone's head will roll because of this.

+1 on this, it's of course hard to tell from this shot, but if the screws were actually in t-bolts or even just woodscrewed into the baffle it seems like it would take a lot to shake them loose, or if it happened by sudden force there'd be some splintering. Weird.

Man I wish I had a BudLite right now.

Seems hard to believe all the screws/nuts fell out.
BTW I have some Budlites on ice just waiting for me,
I leave work in less then an hour. If you happen to have
a private jet, stop over
