I'm concerned, UPS wears brown for a reason.
They are second only to the USPS in annoyance level.
I am very pleased with USPS - they never bust up anything (although they
do loose them from time to time). Things are so much nicer with me and
USPS now that the Dragon Lady behind the counter of the Carmel PO has
retired.
I don't use USPS if I have any other options. I had them lose over 100 cds
that I bought from someone. Of course, the seller was supposed to insure
the package (I paid extra for it), but they didn't. When I got the box,
only 3 of 100 something cds were actually inside, and those were scuffed
up. USPS was "kind" enough to include a note saying the package had been
damaged, yet the only damage I saw was the bottom of the box had been
opened by someone. It was right before christmas of 2003/2004 and I figure
someone pinched those cds. Supposedly they never did turn up at the bulk
mail recovery center, and they even had a list that I faxed them.
