    Thinking about canning UPS

    I am getting fee'd to death with ups. I am considering canning them. Anyone else done this? Did you have better luck with other services?

    Personnaly, I prefer using the postal service.. Especially in my case where I'm always importing stuff to Canada.. UPS does charge like crazy, on top of the taxes, a handling fee that's a little steep... then, if youre not there, they leave you a stupid little note.. "Sorry, our motherfawkin' driver couldn't reach you. He will try the same stupid deal 3 times, after which you should pick it up." I WORK FROM 8 TO 4 YOU MORONS, GET IT RIGHT!!! How the hell to they expect me to take a vacation day in case they show up... (I've done it before, but I'm running out of sick days.. )

    What fees are they hitting you with? We had to change where we would ship to ect. to dodge some to dodge so of the steep fees
    IF washington wont quit spending money like mad men then i suggest we claim 9 deductions in 2010 and withold or taxes till the final dead line of 4/15/2011.

    I've been using FedEx for a couple of years. They've been consistently cheaper per pound than UPS. I quit using UPS after they damaged 3 or 4 items that were very well packed. I haven't had any claims with FedEx.
