To be honest with you, I don't think it was the shipping company's fault, so I'd rather not say. We had a huge rain storm across the state during the week of delivery. The delivery day, the SM was left at our gate for a couple of hours before we knew about it. Our driver had tried his best by putting it in a plastic bag and knotting the bag tight, but the water had obviously soaked through the box long before the plastic bag was put over it. I think that the lesson learned is that if you're going to ship a SM, or anything else for that matter, it's best to bag it before it goes into the box. Unless, of course, it needs to "breathe."

Steve, that armor is so interesting! Do you make it from scratch for your clients, or do you find old armor and refurbish it?
