Help valuing an AR-88 that UPS destroyed last week --

[Bert & Kathy]

Ron -- Every one has their story to tell.  I've never had anything by superb 
service from UPS.  On the other hand I've been screwed numerous times by 
FedEx whenever I've failed to convince the sender not to use FedEx.

My best FedEx story involves receiving a post card from FedEx sent to my 
address asking me what my address is...!  Gosh, to you think they could read 
the address off the post card before sending it and just deliver the package 
instead?  Also, my telephone number was included in the shipping address 
label, but they never bothered to call me.  It took 17 days to get my 
package delivered from the warehouse 65 miles away to my door -- and that 
was after uncounted phone calls and broken promise after broken promise to 
deliver.

Out of the hundreds of packages delivered to me by UPS, I've never had a 
scratch on a single one.

My eBay profile said "No FedEx, NEVER" until they made me take it down.

Bert, N8NN
