[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1605323, member: 12570"] My store has this one Canadian customer who ships out flat screen TV's in handmade plywood and 2"x2" containers. They all go out NDA and are each insured for $1,100. He spends $500 to ship out each one. I picked up 3 on Friday----$1,500 in shipping plus $3,000 total in additional insurance. They are already packed and ready to go----all the clerk does is process the shipment and then help me load them on to the pkg car. They also print the flyers for our local race track. 4,000 or so each week during the season. All they do is place the original on the copier and make sure there is enough paper----the copier does the rest. They then collect the flyers and put them in to a box to be picked up later that night. They love to push their premium services and will often get a customer to ship something NDA that will get there the next day by ground. They must be doing something right as there is always a line when I go there to make my pickup. [/QUOTE]
