This is why I haven't shipped anything yet. Old machines aften look
pretty bad in the first place,someone expecting a "new"apple II may be
upset when it is covered with stickers and grime. We can see through
that when we describe it, but maybe not when we first pull it out of a
box.
I've also had troubles shipping with UPS. They've delivered parcels and
weeks latter sent a bill saying that the shipment was COD. The stuff
wasn't worth the cost.
Is there a good FAQ yet on packing and shipping?

Nah, I'm referring to a guy who doesn't know how to pack a box, and
didn't give a final shipping quote before sending stuff off. The
shipping ended up being over twice what the original quote was, and a
fair amount of what arrived in the boxes were broken bits of plastic
and scrap metal. He *knows* who he is for sure now ;)
Sounds like there is more than one on the list. I
had some bad
dealings/shipping problems recently with another guy here (he knows
who he is). I must say though, the good dealings with list members
seem to far outweigh problems with an occasional asshole.
I think he means me -- I still haven't gotten those Nubus cards on
the UPS truck ;^)
