As for shipping damage, they're all equally capable of producing that, unfortunately.
Actually, it's very rare that stores want their pedals shipped by UPS.. for the same reason that I don't like to receive expensive packages by it.. their brutal brokerage and duty fees. They're fast but they're really expensive, like a few hundred dollars on a few thousand dollar shipment. Most stores just have orders in for 5 to 20 pedals and the UPS shipping would cut into their margin way too much so they're waiting out the strike. We can't really ship at all and that's what's so frustrating about the strike, it's hurting the Canadian economy. Canada Post is a necessary governmental institution and in a time where most Canadians are wanting to work hard and make some progress the flippin post office decides to do the opposite. Geeez I could rant about this a lot, haha!

so what are you doing with your holidays?
I went to a rib fest last week @ nx... two full racks of heaven were had. best summer so far.
I've been keeping busy, I was just teasing about the holiday... I've been making the last of the blue trems and a bunch of neon green blems, getting ready for the return of the post. The Elements pcbs came in yesterday too (so yes, thank God for UPS I guess, ha!) so I've got those to build.
I like your style though, Kev, rib fest! That would take my mind off the strike! (PS - I've got a 2x12 Traynor cab upstairs, thank God for FedEx too)
