I had stuff packed at a UPS store arrive in many
pieces too.
I have never had this situation occur when it was packed by a business
whose job it is to pack and ship goods.
I have had it happen several times from J. Random Ebay User who always
think they are doing me a favor by skimping on the packaging.
stores are individual franchises and the quality of
any service you get
is totally dependent on the store and the employee that packs it.
However, an individual UPS store franchise that does it's job poorly
will soon be out of business.
J. Random Ebay User can only receive negative feedback from me, and
such feedback will ultimately expire off the browsable feedback and
only be integrated into some abstract number.
The economic impact of shoddy packing is much more likely to be felt
on a UPS Store franchise than it is gonig to be felt on J. Random Ebay
User and market forces are more likely to push bad UPS Stores out of
the market than anything that happens on ebay.
Therefore I conclude that my original statement still holds: J. Random
Ebay User is worse than a UPS Store franchise.
Utopia is not an option.
