Question bout TCS shocks

[jsyi]

Have any of you guys here gotten TCS shocks from TCS directly? A buddy ordered a set and just received them. They were dinged up to hell and had lots of imperfections in the finish such as paint blemishes on the coils and chips...looked as if they had just been run over by a log skidder(and by no means am I exaggerating. Considering you are paying $700+ you would think it would arrive in perfect condtion....the packaging it arrived in was great....so I am assuming that the coils and shocks were already dinged and chipped prior to being shipped. I dont want you guys to think im ranting about nothing... My next question is.......what kind of shock body does TCS use. The body of the shock resembles my friends Fox to the "t". Any input would make me jump for joy. Thank ya'll for taking your time to read this extremely lengthy post.

Here's a few pics of what these trampled shocks look like.

So there are a couple small chips in the PC, that could happen from anything, testing the testile strength of the spring.. whatever could have done it. Doesn't seem like a thing to fuss about, theres a couple small scratches :rolleyes:

Probably from putting the spring on the shock. Is the shaft messed up? Bent? If not, they're perfectly fine, besides, after a year of riding whatever, your shocks will have quit a bit of PC chipped off from riding.

Looks to me like those marks arent chips. they are marks from when the spring was powdercoated. Thats where they hung or grounded the spring. Dont worry about the marks, your friend should be happy with those shocks.
