I'm a very satisfied customer, there is no "business relationship"

packaged and shipped -- my answer is to use C&F.
If you don't like me recommending a company that has provided me
excellent service, while all their competitors have screwed up, then
that's youre problem, not mine.
No Richard, the problem that people have is with you pimping them at
every opportunity and denigrating their competitors.
Many of us have used various shipping services that as you have
intimated in the past as incompetent (or worse). The first is, if
they were truly as bad as you say then they'd be out of business.
Secondly, many of have used them and shipped tons (literally) - I
personally have used the "competition" several dozen times totaling
over 20,000lbs of gear with no problems.
We're all sorry that some of your shipments haven't worked out as
you'd have liked - it happens. That's what insurance is for. Get
over it.
If you want to recommend C&F fine. A simple statement like "I've used
C&F in the past with no problems. I highly recommend them." is all
that's needed - full stop.
Your sig line says "Legalize Adulthood". Start acting like one!

If you don't like it, delete it. Every time
I've used C&F the
service
has been exceptional. Every time I've used someone else, they've
fucked
up.
Pat's right, it's getting tiresome. Now you're promoting them even
before someone asks for a suggestion. Maybe you ought to disclose
your
business relationship with them.
