I agree. UPS drivers CRUSHED my Turbo-Hydro 350 Trans case, then said I =
had not packaged it properly when I attempted to collect on the =
insurance I'd purchased on it. I've heard many horror stories about UPS =
since then.....
Use Fed-Ex or Yellow Freight (for heavy items)

Subject: OT: UPS warning
This is just a warning to you to avoid UPS at all costs when shipping =
something time sensitive. If you ship something 2 or 3 day select, it =
really means 3-4 day as they don't count the day it got dropped off, no =
matter what time it was dropped off. For me, I've been lucky to get =
packages at all, let alone on time. I thought it was just my location =
and that they were lazy bastards, but it turns out the problem is UPS as =
a whole. They are the most unreliable shipping company by far. Part of =
the problem is they wait to ship the package. If you order 3 day =
service, they will hold it until they think the timing is right to get =
it there right on the 3rd day. For example, my package is going to sit =
at the transit center that delivers to my area all day because it's not =
due until tommorrow. I'm just venting so I apologize, but I can't count =
how many times they've fucked me over. ARGH!!!!
