*True story: I was talking to the UPS guy who services the company where I work and I asked him how packages are treated. He said some workers are more conscientious than others. He advised me no to label packages as "FRAGILE" as some of those people see that as a challenge. Timrhu*
I'm a big fan of UPS, overall, & think it far superior to "Fed-ex Ground", which I think is how Etmerritt33 shipped his speakers (?). 10 years ago maybe, I took a Rega TT to the local Fedex office to ship by "Fed-ex Ground", & they actually warned me not to do it, to send it by UPS instead.
But if the packing isn't very, very good, for delicate or heavy items, it will get damaged....
