I hate UPS so much. The fact that DBA uses them makes me question their ethics even more.

The UPS near me ONLY delivers to other UPS stores or residential addresses. They refuse PO Boxes even

When I ordered my Goatkeeper it was delivered through UPS, the packaged had obvious signs of being reopened and closed several times. It was extremely uncomfortable.

I think maybe my local postoffice has some sort of affiliation with ups then? I live kind of in the sticks.

Maybe some package handelers moonlight as muicians and keep an eye out for cool gear to borrow :lol:

Seriouly though that sucks, I've had customs go through a garnet Herzog I bought. No signs that they opened the chassis but still bothered me.

Yeah, I think it's a case by case thing most definitely

I just feel like 90% of my UPS dealings have been somewhat negative. Like when they don't leave your 1 lb package at your door because you aren't home and it's Friday, so you have to wait until after 5 on Monday to get it. Just stuff like that gets me.

Yeah. And as much as I don't really enjoy the regular post office, they have been being a lot more reliable recently

Yeah, I hardly never leave my house. But I've had to wait the weekend because of a signature being needed before and i was asleep when they came. frustrating.

Mine showed up the other day. Its signed but I didnt have time to plug it in yet.

UPS rang my bell and ran away like they threw a bomb on my porch.

I cant wait to mess around with it this weekend. :love:

Welp, I talked to DBA and they basically said that UPS was just gonna fuck everything up and refuse to change the address so I have to drive to the local distribution center. While I'm in the middle of all the problems of dealing with moving across the company. God, I hate UPS so much. I mean, I don't like any of the mailing systems sans fedex but seriously, UPS is the most incompetent mailing service in the country. Now I have to try to make it to a distribution center in the middle of nowhere before 4:00. I just want my Ring Mod. :grumpy:
