RANT ON!

So a buddy sends me a new EO Tech and an ARMS BUIS on Monday.

"How'd you ship?"
"UPS 2nd Day Air"

OH FUCK!

Well, it went from GA Precision in MO to Kentucky to Montana to Colorado to Illinois to Indiana and back to Kentucky where it's been sitting for 2 days.

Now I'm told by some retard claiming to be a manager that it's not in Reno/Sparks and more than likely will not be until Monday..."huh huh if we don't lose it again huh huh".

I wouldn't mind so much if their mouthbreathers hadn't been jacking me off on the phone all week promising me it would be here by tomorrow, etc.

Avoid fucko the clown in the shit brown!


RANT OFF!

What can Brown do for you?

I don't think it's any coincidence that their color is BROWN.

Seems apropos with how many times they've screwed me over.

Every time I do something with them, they screw it up.

Had an Emerson Knife stolen a few years ago, they lost a rifle on me for 91 days 10 years ago.  One thing after another with them, always a colossal fuckstory.

USPS....never had a major problem with them.
DHL....only problem was they made me go to their office to pick something up once.
FedEx...probably the best of the lot.

Fedex is the industry standard

UPS has never been the same since the major labor strike a few years back.  They used to be the industry standard.  They have fucked up EVERY shipment I have been involved with for the past two years!  They have NEVER credited me for their inability to provide the service that myself or the person I was doing business with paid for.  I will NEVER use them again.

Been using DHL a lot through work.  They seem to be pretty reliable.  Their ground is a couple days faster than UPS on average.

I guess I must be the "odd man out", as I have never had a problem with UPS in many transactions with them.  Infact this week, a guy shipped a large item Ground to me from Idaho on Monday and I got it Wednesday morning.  Cant beat that service.  I have had worse with USPS service, especially letters.  I mean 7 days to central California??  I could have attached it to one of these blasted Pigeons here and it would have made it in 2.

think its hit or miss possible with anyone although i have noticed that UPS (oops!) seems to be screwing the proverbial pooch more often.

I ordered 4 boxes of 5.7 from midway a while back and when the box arrived it was "soft".  Upon opening it i recovered 2 full boxes, and 2 empty ones whose contents were rolling around in the box mingling with the foam popcorn.  After sifting through the debris for the better part of 30 mins, i'd recovered one full box and half of another.  I checked the porch and found 2-3 more rounds sitting there, thus leading me to believe that the remaining 20+ rounds were rolling around in the back of the truck, would have liked to see the guys face at the end of his run...

Midway of course sent me out a full box to replace the one that'd been "mishandled".

If UPS screws up, the shipping is free.

I don't mind it at all!!

Of course, I try to plan a lil' bit when I buy things. Stuff I needed has always shown up on time!

Yes UPS sucks.  Send everything USPS unless it is illegal to do so otherwise.

What's sticky and brown?

What's brown and sits on a piano bench?

What's brown and rides around in a van, solving mysteries?

They screw up nearly EVERY package they deliver to me at my office, and it is the same thing every time! They will drive around to the back of the building and leave it with someone standing back there with a bunch of other packages. There are other companies in our building but they always leave mine with another company. So I always have to track it down. If I can ship any other method other than UPS I do.

The latest is this, "Yes we lost the package.  But go fuck yourself for buying our insurance and wipe your ass with that receipt...we pay lowest replacement value for the items in question.  For an encore we'll anally rape your mother while pouring sugar in your gastank!"

To cap it off, I order from Brownells on Friday morning...in spite of a $25 price increase on Smith Enterprises M14 Flash suppressor with quick connect.  I asked the gal to ship Priority mail.

An hour later I get an email saying it went UPS!!!!

So I called Brownells and told them how shitbrown still hires dopers and thieves who subsidize their drug habit by stealing boxes...they refunded the shipping cost and put a note in my file to never use UPS to ship to me.

I fucking hate UPS!
