Excellant UPS Delivery ?
« on: January 02, 2009, 07:21:31 PM »
I shipped a system and when it arrived at the customer there was problems.  I asked for a few pics and told him to let me call UPS.  UPS agreed to pickup the delivery and return it to me.  I did ship it insured.  Tuesday I got a letter from UPS stating "No evidence of damage during transit." And they denied my claim for repair.

Today the friendly UPS man showed up at our office. With our undamaged box he wanted me to sign for.  I asked him to wait one min, I grabbed my camera and took this picture



I signed and he went on his way.  This is our "undamaged box"  I took a few more shots of the box before opening it.



Now lets look at the contents of the "Undamaged Box"

Totally trashed rig
The Power Supply was broken away from the frame.  The cases frame is bent in 3 places.  But there is no evidence of damage during shipping.

This is how we ship.  There is a difference between the two boxes I think, UPS did not.



Long story short, we are rebuilding for the customer and dealing with the Atlanta Journal Constitution (newspaper) and local TV stations showing how UPS is blind to their blunders in shipping at times.

i hate UPchuckS!!!!!!

i have never recieved a delivery on time, if you try to track the package they give you vague details at best and when ever you ask about the actual expected delivery time and date they are worse than the NYC cable company.

every package is covered with dirt and grime, boxes are dinged and always show signs of mistreatment.

but of course any damage to the product is never something that they could have done!

in my opinion they just sux!!

i have in the past (and still generally do) actually declined to order things online from companies that ship with only ups. if i cant get it shipped by another handler then i will do business with another company instead.

Wow!  Can you imagine how far they would have had to drop that case for the PS to rip itself out like that?  Almost looks like it fell out of the plane ;)

I ordered something from Gamestop and overnighted it. Was there the next day bright and early.

The UPS guy I have is a cool cat and looks out for my stuff.   He also waits until the evening so someone is home from work.

I have reason to believe that your photo of the UPS guy is a fake.

Here is the real culprit.

Problem is I think once you signed for it you're sorta screwed and took on the liability yourself.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

No this is the condition it was in when it was sent back.  I sent to customer, customer saw it called me I called UPS and they went and picked it back up.  I giggle over they say no evidence of damage from shipping.
