I guess you didnt read the story, its not the taxidermist, its the shipper. The shipper is responsible for getting the box there safely. I absolutely agree with OP his client paid for a professional service and did not receive professional results. The OP stated the taxidermist supplied a quality box for the antlers and during shipping someone crushed it. The shipper should definitely be held responsible for all damages. If you shipped something to someone and it was damaged on the way how would you feel? Just because you or someone you know has had good results with the same shipping company does not mean the OP client should have to pay for the damage caused in shipping.
