Can't imagine doing that with someone else's lens

Better than doing it to your own lens!

At least insurance will cover most of it.

i have a feeling they where not insured, from the info i read on POTN they where going to fold the business because it was such a large loss, not sure whats happened now though.

The recycling centre will have some good jobs to do, glass, metal, aluminium, gold, silver, everything... its in it...

I dunno, in their words, I took it as they had insurance?

No, the customer is not responsible for the full damage. He had insurance (purchased from us at time of rental) on this lens, so is only responsible for 12% of the cost of replacement.

This is all the comment I will give as far as insurance and the underwrites, etc.

You would hope they did!

[methd]

the thread states that he was insured and only liable for 12% of the $7k odd cost of a new lens.

I was just looking at that lens in my "EF lens works III" book! Poor thing.
