[QUOTE="DS, post: 263338, member: 556"] In my opinion,ups screwed up big time allowing up to 150 lbs per package.Its great if you are sending an engine block but far too often its a much more delicate item that gets shipped without its original packaging.I've been in one area a long time and I always make sure my customers know if there is any apparent damages .I once had an expensive keyboard that had been wrapped in bubble wrap with corrugated carboard on top of that .It weighed about 90 lbs and when I picked it up,broken pieces of toggle switches were falling out of the cracks...the driver that picked it up must have felt it was easier to just take it instead of refusing to pick it up just to save time.I really feel bad for customers that order things and we screw up.As far as waiting to the last minute goes,if we cant live up to our commitments and deliver what we promise,then we shouldn't be making promises,we can't keep,especially at Christmastime.Anything over 70 lbs should be sent ups freight and be on a skid.
