Original Pelican OEM product?

Not happy with the shipping method. There is no box. The foam was simply wrapped in plastic and shipped with no tags or Pelican packaging information. foam only. THERE IS NO WAY TO VERIFY THAT IT IS A GENUINE PELICAN OR SOMETHING UNBRANDED! I compared it to foam from a new Pelican 1400 shell I bought from Revain and found the density, shape and color to be slightly different. DISAPPOINTED WITH SELLER TsVPKG!

Pros
  • Dunnage & Protection
Cons
  • Large & Bulky

The foam density is very low so it won't hold its shape unless you use it on light weight items like china or china and individual foam segments will tear at the slightest touch. move under the weight of heavy objects. And by heavy, I mean something substantial, like a camera or a gun. which I'm wondering because Pelican cases are virtually indestructible so you'd think it's meant to protect "gear". Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Packing and Shipping Material
Cons
  • No Instructions

The Real Item

If you've had a Pelican case for a while, you've probably rebuilt it a few times. The interior can look pretty shabby, with seats that no longer match what you can carry. This replacement foam is genuine. Just take out the old foam, put in the new one and start tearing out pieces where you need space. Pay attention to the pricing. It's expensive, but the price changes significantly over time. I've seen it oscillate between the lowest and highest price near the ten dollar area.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Not sure
