UPS Warning

I have been using the post office for two years now and have shipped
over
400 items including overseas, all without a mishap (knock on metal!).
Have even
shipped some small boatanchors to Japan (<45 lbs) with no problems. The
only time I
use UPS is when it is over the weight limit for the post office such as
an
SX-28 and an SX-17. In these cases the post office would ship it but the
charges are exorbitant
The post office has better rates on small packages. The 2 day priority
mail rate is very reasonable and gets it there quickly
I have never had anything damaged that I have shipped by UPS but I have
been the recipient of a damaged SX-28 and NC-100, both were packed by
mailbox stores.
Use the Post Office!
