UPS = Unbelievably Poor Service

Posted by Johnny

Ok, shitty re-acronymizing (is that a word?) aside, UPS sucks.

I ordered a MOTU audio interface off of eBay from the US and despite my requests to not send via UPS, the guy did. "Ok," I thought, "I'll have to pay another $40 once it gets here" because UPS charges all sorts of border and import fees in addition to the original shipping cost.

$120 later, I'm cursing the day that I didn't demand that the sender ship with Fedex or USPS air mail.

People shouldn't have to pay more for shipping at their doorstep than what they already paid. If you want to charge me $160 to ship to Canada, charge me $160 up front! Then we'll see how much business you actually get...

UPS fucking blows. If they change me that much I'll be pissed and make their lives' miserable. How you may ask? Oh, I'll find a way...I have the internet on my side
