UPS insurance is a joke and a waste of money. Sure, you'll get a tracking number, but if you go to ever file a claim then good luck.

They told me that unless I had it packed at a UPS store to their standards that they wouldn't cover any damage. I told them to shove it. FedEx gets there quicker anyways.

I find FedEx does indeed get it there faster and broken. haha. I ship a lot and have a UPS account that might help! But seriously FedEx brakes a lot of shit.

Truthfully, I ship a lot of stuff and it gets there 99.9% of the time.
That doenst surprise me at all. It's been my experience as well.

I get a kick out of all the post office hate that's out there. For the most part the service is pretty freaking good.

I shipped an exo through fedex at my families business and it was $26 that UPS quoted at $65

This ^. I shipped a 5500 Exo using FedEx and it was in the low 20s from Illinois to California.

USPS will take anything. Guarantee you could put the pack in a black contractor bag, wrap the whole thing in duct tape and ship it for 20 dollars. Maybe less.

Ended up costing me $35. Sucks but I'd rather have some protection for both me and the seller.
