It's real simple. The seller is "responsible" to package the item so it arrives to the buyer in the condition it left in.
I don't see why people think they were installed or that cardboard did it. That's what happens when both headers rub against each other for hundreds or thousands of miles. All it takes is some cardboard between them. Heck,stuff newspaper in there. I've even used empty water bottles to cushion. There's lots of free things to use that don't add much if anything to the weight. It's purely ignorant to just toss any two items in a box with no packing and expect them to arrive in good condition. Especially something with a $200+ coating.
There sure are a lot of posts about people with no ethics on selling lately. What happened? When did being a cop-out become ok? People need to learn to own up. Or better yet,be conscientious enough to never need to.
