Wow, that is really heart breaking. I can't believe how most delivery people just don't give a s**t. In my business I have had boxes of product arrive where the boxes are so wet that they have soaked right through 3 layers of cardboard and damaged the goods inside. The had to have been left out in the rain for hours or days!!
But having chips damaged would be the worst. Yours definitely looks like it has been run over by something.

on the other hand it's good that you did get them. Sucks that after a moths search for a chip you finally get them in such a state.
Guess strange things can happen when travelling thousands of miles; Like - UPS plane crashes on an uninhabited island in the carribeans, only one man survives. What would happen then? He would problably have to make a friend called "Pentium" (Pentium! NOOOOOOO!!!)
