    In my case they deff damaged the print. I'd gladly send the print back. They can check the damn shipping info to see when it arrived. There tubes are also to small for this size of most prints they ship.
    Go Birds!!!!

    It's not common practice.

    I see is all over the place, frequently. Many businesses have this policy. So that actually does make it common practice.

    It really does suck to have to pay for return shipping when anything arrives damaged, from 10C or elsewhere (this does seem to be common practice though, unfortunately. It's obviously an attempt to deter people from returning damaged good, and, therefore, to deter people from getting refunds or exchanges, and that blows).

    Not common at all. Most companies handle their product control 180* diff then 10C.
    Again, it IS common. Seriously, lol. I`m not saying everyone does it (that`s not what common practice means). But a lot. I mean, Ebay and PayPal do it for many of their return-it solutions when you file a claim and "win" it. If PayPal and Ebay do this, then it's a pretty common practice.
    (not that it's a good excuse - sending someone something that was damaged because of careless packing is pretty brutal, no matter what the policy says)

    10C needs to invest in some customer service training. The perception they create is that they don't care. Santos' post above reinforces that perception.

    Santos, obviously someone on your end didn't take good care of these. How is that fair to the customer? It's almost impossible to get a poster that's flat into a tube that small without damaging it. A Shuss,Cooper or other small ones are no problem. The Spawn,Wercther,Sperry Oslo belong in bigger tubes. Rolling a huge poster in a 2-3 in tube is just asking for problems.

    Nope. I disagree. Million dollar companies don't normally have this policy. Ten club, replace these posters on your dime or give them some type of refund.

    So we pay for a product. You messed it up and your reply is it is what it is?? Is that how any manager would tell an employee to respond to a customer? I'd be fired or yelled at if I spoke to a buying customer like that. I'm not trying to be an ass honestly. I'm just blown away with this attitude.

    The condescension is incredible.

    What's next? The 'no one forced you to buy it' statement?

    Sorry this happened, hope the Ten Club makes it right.

    Sounds like one of those generic "we are not responsible" disclaimers that are posted everywhere that don't actually hold up in a court of law when negligence is involved.

    Exactly, this is NOT common and it's ok to be wrong sometimes pjsoul. No harm in it.

    I've heard some horrible stories involving issues with customer service and others who work for the 10C in some other capacity. One story if true, which I believe to be 100% true due to the source, would seriously make you look diff at the club. But since it didn't involve me, I won't share the story.

    "As-is" before or after you guys pack them? If they already have some damage it should be noted on the product page. If they are damaged by you guys in the process of packing them up, as appears to be the case, then it should be on you guys to fix it. If it is damaged in transit then the shipper should be responsible. But to tell people that your lack of care is their problem and not yours is an amazingly arrogant and pompous position to take. As a manager of a customer service department, I'm appalled by the attitude, but definitely not surprised.

    Wtf? No need for the personal jab (doesn't even make sense - I admit I'm wrong when I am). This has nothing to do with wanting to be right. I wish I weren't. But if I'm saying I see this practice a lot with businesses (have dealth with it SEVERAL times myself) and that it's also what PayPal and Ebay enforce, then it's true. I'm not a liar.
