bemoreonline,
Well is the machine beyond damage control would be one of my first questions? How badly is it damaged.
Take lots and lots and lots of pictures. Send copies to the carrier with a major complaint.
File an insurance claim if it was insured . Especially if you have to pay to ship it back.
We know about these types of damages.
Been there, done that too much this last year.
For now we have been fortunate to have a very conscientious and caring UPS delivery lady on our route.
And oh we do know about the basket ball playing in these shipping rooms.
Done that too. Had a boss that would toss a box 100 plus feet and land it right side up right behind the driver just to get their attention.
With that said, how much work are you willing to put into it to save it? How bad did you want it in the first place.
I guess that is up to you to weigh and measure.

We just went back and looked at your pics. There is damage there that does not look like it can be repaired.
The opinion here now is send it back. File a complaint with eBay and PayPal. That machine was not properly packed in the first place from what we can see in your pictures. The bobbin winder is bent.
Make sure to get your money back plus what it costs you to ship it back.
Joe says that the seller was an idiot for not packing it properly.
Elaine and Joe
