UPS strikes again!!!

[LBlack14]

They obviously can't read"Handle with CARE!!!"

[wesmcnew512]

Morons! I am hoping it was insured...

[pshizz]

damn that sucks dude, isn't that the new adams fw the goes for 270?!?!?

[M2daRizzle]

that sucks, but the good news is tht the stock speedline sucks and ups should reimburse you, so you can get it reshafted with something better.

[Amoretti]

Wow, that's horrible. Good luck with the refund!

I'm sure that you already know about this, but...I got on UPS' website and they have a claim process that you can go through. I tried to copy and paste the link but it wasn't working for me, sorry.

That's a shame. The sad thing is, they'll probably try to fight it claiming that they didn't do anything, etc.. Good luck with everything!

how in the heck?

UPS hadles packages like a bunch of morons. This is a known fact. Now, while UPS is ultimately to blame for the damage, you also have to fault the shipper a little bit too for not preparing for this widely-known fact. I shipped a driver to someone in California a couple of weeks ago and it arrived safely because I took great care in the packaging of the item. I put a rigid tube over the shaft from the top of the grip to the top of the head, then packed the whole box with packing material (air packets, etc).

Now, if the shipper took these measures and the item was still destroyed, there is nothing else that could have been done. However, I suspect the driver was just shoved in a box and sent on it's way with minimal protection.

i have no doubt that this was UPS's fault. I used to work for them as a package handler and they way guys used to handle packages was unreal. "FRAGILE" & "HANDLE WITH CARE" mean absolutely nothing on the loading docks especially this time of year. And the delivery drivers aren't much better.

That looks like a classic case of a long box not laying flat and something thrown on top of it. That's a damn shame. Good luck with the claim.

i dont know how they do that all the time, but they do. ive been a seller on ebay for over 8 years now and i have over 2500 transactions. i use USPS 99% of the time. out of the 2500 or so packages ive shipped with USPS over the last 8 years, ive never had ANY of them damaged. the last 3 times i used UPS, 2 of them were completely destroyed. one of them looked like a forklift went thru the entire box; in one side and out the other. its unreal. i even played golf with a guy recently and this subject came up and he said when he was in his early 20's, he used to work for UPS and they would break packages on purpose. he said they would throw packages marked "Glass" so they could hear the glass smash inside the box when it landed. UPS is the absolute worst and i will NEVER use them again. the only reason i used them on the few occassions i did was because they were very large packages and the cost was about half of what USPS would've charged for the same size package. in the end it wasnt worth it though because they ended up destroying them and the items i sold were not replacable either...NEVER USE UPS IF YOU HAVE A CHOICE.

Ouch, that stinks.

I am totally done with UPS. I ordered some parts for my business the day before Thanksgiving with UPS Red (Next day) delivery. Paid about $35 extra to get it next day. Of course the next day was Thanksgiving so it really meant Friday. Friday morning I roll into the office about 7:00am and check online tracking -- "OUT FOR DELIVERY". Woohoo!, I'm going to get my parts.

The UPS guy normally shows up here about 12:30 so I waited patiently. Time went by then finally about 1:00pm I decided to check online tracking again -- "12:00 PM THE RECEIVER IS ON A HOLIDAY. DELIVERY WILL BE ATTEMPTED WHEN THE RECEIVER RETURNS"

WTF???? I was sitting there waiting and the UPS guy just never showed up!

Then the capper... I was steaming mad having paid for next day service and UPS not even attempting to deliver it to me. Bear in mind I have received literally 100's of packages from UPS at this same business over the years. I decided to call customer service... big mistake. UPS has an automated phone system where it is impossible to talk to a human being. Ditto that for emailing customer service. From now on it's Fedex baby...

Oh and just for grins (sorry for those of you who have had packages -- especially golf equipment -- abused by UPS):

Seriously, please let us know how this turns out, so if it happens to others, we will know what to do.

It's probably karma for calling Norm "juvenile"
