Case Of The Stupids
When I ordered one of these (in blue), I was violating my never buy anything from Florida rule. There's a reason that state has its own tag on Fark. The last thing I bought from Florida was a 61-key Casio CZ-1 keyboard, which arrived "packed" in two mangled cardboard boxes that had been ill-taped together and filled with a couple of handfuls of styrofoam peanuts. Turned out the youth who packed it that way checked it out with his dad, who thought it was perfectly fine to ship a 30-pound item in mangled boxes that probably didn't survive the trip to the UPS store.
Thus: being from Florida, when the scooter trunk arrived it was a) too small and b) smashed. Still haven't heard back from the shop, but fortunately I have a powerful ally in my credit card company.
Still, it was my own fault for ordering the thing, in a bit of engineering panic mode once I realized that my original scheme wasn't going to fly. Very sad.
But, pressing forward, I've located yet another case that might do the trick.
And if it doesn't, I'll just rivet the equipment to my femurs.
