Hi Bill

The whole pallet of 35. All are bent. 
They are on the pallet sideways, not vertically stacked. 
No damage to the cardboard box, or any packaging. All Oem packaging, full 
pallet. 
No damage to the modules, not a scratch. 
Equal bend to the top and bottom of the modules
No damage to the pallet 
No gaps between modules, sides or top. 

I’m not sure if the pictures came through. 

I have talked with a friend who’s worked on a few hundred megawatts of install, 
he’s never seen this. 

So far Canadian solar has said nothing but that they are within spec ie it’s 
not a warranty issue. 

I’d say that it looks like I’m not going to get anything from them. No 
replacement, no discount.  Fair warning to all about buying from them. 

Jay
