I used to work for a very large ISP that had stuff arriving in all the time from UPS, Fed-Ex, DHL, and a few other assorted companies. Stuff like Top of the line routing and switching gear from Cisco, Juniper, Fujitsu, etc. Little line cards that cost as much as a fricken house. UPS once delivered two Cisco ESR10000 routers to us. They had dropped them off the truck/dock, and speared one with the forklift to turn it over. Fortuantely, they were still usable, but we hollered to Cisco, who proceeded to scream at UPS, as the chassis alone was about $50k, with some of the cards being a good 128K each

Then there was the time we got a Juniper M40 loaded with a 'standard' build out (~$2 mil) that had been dropped off the truck/dock, and they punched the fork through the shipping crate (sturdy wood!) to get it upright. Juniper had words with the shipping company. Fortunately, all three routers ran OK... (and I heard later via my boss, who talked with our Juniper rep that they had another M40 returned that had been impaled completely on a forklift. the bugger still powered up, even though there was a gaping hole in the backplane...)
