Dang seems like they may have been damaged in transit?
I inspected mine last night. I did see some smearing, stains which initially looked like scratches, however once I wiped it down, they came right off. Overall, I'm happy with them.

Ordered 4 jerry cans, one spout, 5 can gaskets and 5 spout gaskets from British Atlantic.

Either they sell millions of these each year and they dont give a Frak about handling scratches/dings OR these are Factory 2nds. My blemsished Gelgs cans are in better condition than the crap I got from BA/RoverParts.

Boxed came pretty banged up. Ripped on 2 sides.
All 4 cans had scratches or dings. One big ding that shows bare metal. Need to paint that soon to prevent rust.

I can see a big difference in quality from the Red Wavians and the Blemished Gelgs to the ones from BA.
The bottom floors on the Red Waviand and Gelg are perfectly flat. The floors on the BAs are warped.

That’s F’d up! My shipping box was tore up and my cans had small scuffs and a few bare metal spots, but nothing like that, that’s ridiculous. I’d complain to the seller and more importantly, FedEx!

Wow, sorry to see the damage akjunkie. Send those pics to AB, I'd at least ask if they could comp me a couple of spouts on their dime.

Speaking of spouts, for those who have installed the little plastic retainer that comes with the spout, do they hold up pretty well? Seems kind of flimsy.

I installed one this morning using the plastic backing tab. I think I'm going to just put bolts and nuts with a lock washer instead.

Any input from those who use this as far as how durable it is?

My Red Wavians are riveted.

I'll probably use a bolt / washer too for the cans I received.

On a side note. Anyone need xtra spouts. BA is selling their spouts on Amazon for a few $$ cheaper.

Definitely keep us updated on this. Hope they come thru for you.

ETA: Although I have 2 of the Harbor Freight (Midwest) Jerry cans, I was tempted to buy a pair. I find it hard to resist a good deal!!!

Got an email stating free shipping again on $200 orders~

Some missed out last time, so here you go. Only caveat is FedEx sucks! AK got burnt pretty bad last go. Don’t know if he got resolved, but most came out unscathed.

Hope anyone that needs some cans can get some…….

Nice! Glad they stepped up to the plate for you.

Although, you shouldn't have to go thru all of that hassle. They should be better packaged. Looks like they're just put plain in the box, no extra padding at all to prevent damage in shipping. They're probably getting a ton of these returns. Their reputation is getting hammered I'm sure.

Just ordered 4.
I always cycle my gas into my car in december. I was filling my sceptre plastic gas can and it split on top when it got full.
Could not pour it into someones car. Split too big. I had to call the fire dept since i was at a gas station. Explained to them it was not a emergency.
OMG they came with lights and siren. How embarassing.
No more plastic for me.

Thanks. I missed the free shipping and was too cheap to pay for it. Just ordered 12 cans, two nozzles and 5 extra gaskets.

probably not necessary, but thought it might be a good idea.
