It happens to the best of us. :)
We really did think of this ahead of time, there's a bolt, spacer and
nut holding the card in place but there's enough distance between the
bolt and the connector to allow the connector to come loose.
(We didn't have this problem with the first connector we used, but
when we changed parts, the behavior was different.)

I'm guessing that there was a crate of players that was dropped in a

for you!I think it's just air frieght. I used to design broadcast
TV standards
converters for a UK company. Our products were 19" rack based card
frames, and we found we had to add horizontal locking bars (top &
bottom) across the front of the cards to stop them being unseated 'in
transit'. Even then we had one standards converter where all the
cards
had been unseated and jumped their card guides during shipping. The
locking bars were still in place!
