Just outta curiosity, Garth, how much did those bandits at UPS rip you
off for "brokerage" fees? I got nailed with a $35 fee on a $100 camera
'bout a year ago. I will NOT have anything sent UPS anymore, even if
that means cancelling the deal (if the buyer insists on UPS) and getting
negative feedback.
$45.00 for the brokerage fees. UPS is not on my "favorites" list for
precisely that reason; too many "extra" charges. The sender actually paid
for shipment -- that should mean "no fees imposed on the recipient."
Sorry to hear you got bit. It happens once in a blue moon. Hurts when
it does, but then there'll be that "steal of a deal" later that'll make up
for
it.
Ah, hopefully it'll still work out. In a way, I feel sorry for the sender
-- he's obviously at a loss to explain the damage, and is sorta pissed at
the shipper (thinks maybe something happened there). We'll see.
