![]() ![]() I once bought a vintage counting scale on E-bay. I could tell the UPS ones by how beat up they looked. In Cali while playing Dualkit I used to receive quite a few inbound shipments. I realize everyone's experience is different but UPS has always been terrible for me here in Virginia and in Cali. It seems like most of the boxed items I get arrive OK, but that is usually light items traveling a couple hundred miles. When it comes to bar stock in tubes from UPS I would say 25% or more of them have arrive damaged. That leaves me with UPS delivering small diameter rounds as all the online vendors I buy from use them. ![]() The local one that won't deliver has a $150 minimum even for cash will calls. Unfortunately for me the local metal yard that delivers does not sell many steels in less than 5/16" round. I am in Virginia and they shipped them from all the way from Washington, that 3,000 mile UPS ground trip was bent bar stock waiting to happen. Of course they are all bent at the 44" mark. The shipping tube was split open in 2 places like those pop n fresh dough containers. After I read this I went out and opened my UPS delivered 6 foot 3/16 steel rods.
