Dropped my A5 Masterclip on the floor yesterday

It fell off the shelf straight onto concrete. Blade gap got totally messed up. Had to cancel two appointments because I couldn't get it dialed back in right. Anyone else have a clipper break from a simple drop like that?

Feel for you, man. That sinking feeling when you hear it hit the concrete is the worst. I've had a similar thing happen with my clippers, except mine bounced off the bathroom counter onto tile. Threw the blade alignment off so bad I had to replace the whole thing, just couldn't get it right again. It's not like you're tossing them around either, sometimes it just slips. Hope you can get yours fixed or find a decent replacement without breaking the bank.

Have you ever seen someone just freeze up after dropping something important? My buddy dropped his trimmer on the driveway and it dented the casing so bad the blade wouldn't even sit flush anymore. He ended up just buying a cheap one from Walmart that actually worked better than his old one somehow.

Hold on, @grace_bailey, is it really that serious though... a trimmer denting is kind of par for the course with yard gear. I mean, it hit concrete, it's not a delicate piece of electronics. Seems like a quick run to Walmart for a cheap replacement was actually the smart play.
