People need to be realistic and stop ordering them and having them delivered lol

Same happened with me with a boot the other week for my Mk4 was gutted makes you wonder how they handle them must b rough as **** with all the parcels.
where were the fragile, do not stack stickers...??
i must of had over a hundred panels fooked by couriers, nearly put me out of business in the end!
But as Rick said!
i used to send cab glass out on carriers, and i found that if it went out with the edges covered, and the main bit open, they always got there intact..
ps. OP i hope you wrote damaged on the paperwork & paid for insurance on the item...
where were the fragile, do not stack stickers...??
You mean the ones that translate to "Kick me" and "Guess how many items you can get on top of this one!" in 'Delivery man'? lol
Posting panels is never really gonna work unless it's suspended in a 2x2 framework full of packing chips with plywood sides, by the time you've weighed that though you might as well just go and collect it lol
edit: is that door being collected by OCP? Because with a poke or two and a bit of filler that won't come out too bad lol
back in the day, the only courier we would never use was securicor, (can't remember who bought them).. they employed some ex coppers & they were absolute ar$eholes.. we sent 30 tractor starter motors & 28 were smashed upon delivery... they are not exactly light weight.... the collecting driver was seen throwing them into the van, but we weren't allowed to remove & check them because of rules...
i used to send large plastic & steel items too, but they were always packed so the carrier could see what they were & we had stencils to spray fragile in huge letters on the boxes.
Mmm that's not good at all :(
I bought a door from OCP last week and it turned up fine

If they have more stock, they may offer to post another, DO NOT ACCEPT. Just take a refund, and if you really need a door, drive over and collect it.
I had a total of 6 delivered all in simaliar condition, then just drove over and collected 4. Have two spare in my loft.

Well, been on the phone, after sending some pics, iam having another one sent out to , hopfully its better wrapped, if it happens again i will be asking for a refund.
Beleive me i would quite happily go over and collect the parts, but would need a van and co poilet to go over cause i wouldnt just collect a door it would be plenty of panels to make it worth the trip.
I remember the bother keith had with his doors, but also heard other people getting parts fine, just hoped i would be lucky, but i guess not.
Might try and see if its fixable if not then its off to the scrap lol.
iain
IMO the damage occurs from couriers here in England
The door I had delivered left Germany, landed at Exeter airport the straight up the M5 to me by one TNT van, as said it arrived no probs
I knew it was a risk after reading the horror storries from Keith but all was ok
The problem about picking them up is that is going to make a door about £600 fine if your a lottery winner

Shame about the door mate.
Keep hold of the door if they don't ask for it back
Could maybe get the dents banged out bit of filler and sell it on

There's an echo in here lol
edit: I also didn't realise this place was in Germany, so not going to collect is understandable :p When it comes to panels I'm more of a, slightly rusty £20 to you sir kinda guy lol

Edd, i was told that it was going to cost to much to have it sent back, so hopefully when i get the next one, perfect lol, i might have a play with the dented one.
Yeh sadly collection is out of the question ............

What courier delivered it ?
When I bought mine last week, I sent OCP a message telling then I wanted it well packaged, mine had more protective stuff on the inside than yours
Then got a email saying it was being sent special delivery by TNT

Edd it was sent by tnt matey, i just check the packaging lable, i did say to the guy on the phone to make sure its better packaged so fingers crossed lol.

It's bad that they don't package them up better.
I got a new boot (not dont them, but direct for Vauxhall) and it was just in a storage box, hence why one corner had a dent.

Get a new skin for it
brand new "rat look" door lol

Can you still get skins from Vauxhall?
Makes me glad my Celica doors are built like brick outhouses now - heavy, so expensive to post, but my passenger one arrived in a bin bag and was still perfect!

Probably why it was perfect... big box gives you a false sense of security/less idea what's inside it. If you sent a large glass vase by courier I bet it'd end up smashed in a box but arrive fine if you just put a label on the glass lol

Sorry but i hope your new door is stamped the **** on.
****ing retards. How many attempts do dicks on here need to understand couriering doors and other panels is a 100-1% chance of getting a un-damaged one....
^^^ why the fook would you hope that another door gets ruined ? Or Iain has the hassle sorting it out if it happens again ? What a complete and utter tool you have just confirmed yourself to be :roll:
Like I've already said I had one delivered last week without any problems !
The only retarded dick on this thread is you, why don't you go back to flying planes and setting fire to corsa's

What would happen if you never even put it on a box and stuck the adress on the door skin.

Going by the stupidity of spending £££'s to build a 500bhp LET nova driving it once then breaking it a grand should be nothing lol

Keith has already stated that he had 6 door turn up ruined, other members have had the same issues. The only way to get one thats undamaged it would seem is to go and get one. I fail to see what the point is in having yet another one sent to him.
If OPC are willing to keep posting doors/panels that are going to get damaged, who's the fool? Not the customer...
Gutted for you Iain but i ordered glass from them the other week and it arrived fine, not sure what the couriers are doin with the doors

You tried smashing a car window recently? It's not as easy as denting a door tbh lol Nova doors dent if you blow gently in their general direction for a start, loads of them have that little dimple dent just below the window on the drivers door, happens if you try and close the door with your ass (like you can manage with most cars) the door folds up and pops back out just leaving that dent lol
Windows break very easily when dropped though.
I think if the panels were suitably protected with bubble wrap or similar and fragile/do not stack clearly marked on them, along with being registered/insured then they would be fine in transit.
The state these doors arrive in really is a joke!

lol, all this over a bloody door, the way i look at it is, if the next door arrives biggered then i will ask for my money back, if its ok then all the better.
