I had a simillar experince for the
first time with fedex..(I have NEVER had a problem with fedex before!.. wth is going on?)
fed: do you have a license?
me: why yes I do, but it doesn't matter, I'm sending it to the Licensed Dealer/Importer who sent it to me.
fed: hmm, I'll need to open the box and check that it is safe.
me: ?? it's safe, its in the same condition and packaging it was sent to me the first time.
fed: I'll still need to open the package.
me: I don't think so. (thinking to myself, yeah right, pull that thing out here in the middle of a busy Kinko's?!?!?!
) You have every right to ask and I have every right to refuse and take my business to UPS.
fed: but its for your safety and ours.
me: ahhh, now I see the truth here.. the old "safty" "key word". No thanks, I'll use UPS. Thank you.
UPS took it, no questions and away it went!
