Used Dreadnaught Case FS With Dynamat

Let this be a lesson when shipping trannies. Block/brace the tranny, just in case the bolt comes loose. The bolt is only supposed to be tightened a smidgen past finger tight. That's Not gonna cut the mustard when shipping X-country. I'd recommend Lock-Tite on the threads, too!
So that's what happened and the washer scrapped the paint off. The Dynamat got a little fudged-up as well. Not sure WTF happened to the Bottom Rear corner.
Being very critical, I'd rate this a 7/10. Some might say a solid 8 or 9 as the blemishes are not visible when the case is set-up in listening position. The imperfection at the Bottom Left Rear Corner cannot be easily seen. Many of these are mounted behind all the electronics and the entire case is not visible.
IIRC, new cases go for approx $100 and no Dynamat . . . I'd like to see $65 clams
Thanks for looking!

I though selling trannies across state lines was a federal offense...

Which tranny did this have in it?
Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....
