Good experiences or bad experiences?

Ive done ship to store. Ships in a tube like anywhere else. Worked well, rod was fine.

I don’t think it matters whether it’s delivered to the store or home. Rarely does damage to packages occur once they’re “ out for delivery”. It’s the conveyors in the processing plants that are really rough on stuff at times. 

I’m 2 for 2 on damaged shipping tubes from USPS. Haven’t had any issues with UPS or Fedex. 

I’ve ordered multiple rods from Bass Pro over the years and never received a damaged one.

Bass Pro uses big thick tubes. Never had a problem.

Thanks everybody 

Before our BPS opened an hour from me I receive maybe four rods in the mail.  Only one from UPS arrived  with the tube bent over maybe 20 degrees at 2 ft down from the tube end.  It contained  a 7' Medium Carbonite spinning rod and when I removed the rod it boinged right back to straight with no damage.
