Shipping Heathkits

[Dave Edwards]

Yikes!
My only suggestion would be to move out of NY.
They are like clockwork here, never had a package (I shipped) damaged, and 
they always arrive when the tracking website says they will. 
Perfect in all respects.....so far!
And they don't require anything differant for shipping electronic equipment.

    I am out here in Long Island and find UPS a totally un acceptable deal.
    Late packages, drivers going home early saying they attempted to delivery,  part time street people working the docks and sorts are hired and fired and rehired every 28 days to keep them out of the union.
    When trying to track a package the on line tracking system is always un available, and no one picks up the phones.
    
    However on USP a package from Vancouver can arrive overnight on standard priority mail the only drawback is no tracking system ,
     if lost a 90 day wait just to apply for recovery.
    Fed Ex on 30+ pounds can exceed 25% of the radio value.
    Any suggestions?
