That's too bad about your radio....maybe next time ask the seller to take the back off and stuff it full of plastic bags or such as this will help immobilze anything such as the chassis from generating a force due to gravity and moving around and breaking stuff inside the cabinet.
It's not just FED EX that can do this...had something similar happen with a TV shipped by another shipping company. Chassis sheared off from the cabinet and the CRT broke loose too! Huge amount of damage. It was well padded from the outside too but all that momentum caused by tumbling the package did it in.
I wonder if Greyhound may be a better way to ship? The only places the package gets moved is between the baggage compartments of the busses and then into the bus depot at its destination. There wouldn't be all the hazards of package sorting and truck loading that plagues truck express services I would think.
