Sorry to hear about your problem. I had a similar problem with a table saw I ordered from amazon, but the outcome was different. I ordered a delta x5 unisaw and it arrived this past friday in a crushed box. I opened the box and inspected the saw and everything looked fine. However later I found that the trunnion has snapped and the motor was lying on the bottom of the saw. I emailed amazon about the problem and one day later they shipped a new one. It is scheduled to arrive next week.
I guess it does matter where you buy your stuff.
I hope everything works out
