In my four years of reviewing, I estimate about 10-15% of equipment arrived with some sort of damage. The most extreme case was a preamp where a corner of the chassis was slightly bent, which shifted the front panel and not allowing the ON/OFF button to engage. This preamp was double-boxed but the affected corner of the container was severely pushed-in.
Reviewers receive far more equipment than the average consumer, and the chance of a component arriving damaged goes up proportionally. Before I became a reviewer, I only had one piece that was damaged in shipping during a span of three decades.
