Sorry to hear this happened to you, this goes on everyday, things need to be packaged very well so they are indestructible.

I used to drive Semies and deliver to places like these. I seen a lot of this uncared handling of people's stuff among more than a few shippers. There are signes everywhere around these places banning photography so videos like this don't get out.

Shipping by air isn't much better. Too bad YouTube wasn't around (1990) when baggage handlers tossed my expensive equipment 10 feet onto a loading cart for my plane. Me and my husband watched them do it from my window seat as they were loading the plane. The look on his face was unforgettable. It pays to insure it

That's a bummer :(, was it a SP-125A? I hope it was insured.
The mirrors, PSU and Alden connectors can be salvages at least.

What a shame. I always demand that they be packed carefully and insured for this reason. what laser was it?
