The seller shipped himself, so I can't claim against Pitney unfortunately.
Yeah it's pretty devastating when it happens!

I'm paranoid now and always ask the seller to double box/reinforce the box with hard cardboard.... doesn't always save the goods though

Have you told the seller? Has he offered to do anything?
