Does UPS ever open and inspect packages?

Who the hell is going to deliver dope with a computer box that is sealed with thier tape unless thier was an obvious cut in box to make it look like it came from factory and then you would have to send from same zipveirtually inpossible.Yeah UPS uscks but and have damaged speakers of mine more than once.But drop shippers aren't cheap.Prefer DHL but again same deal.Private drop shippers are best wehn it's fragile and heavy but cables i'd go with cheapest option with insurance.

One of the best values (for anything over $500 that won't fit in a USPS Priority flat rate box,) is FedEx's "Express Saver" 3rd day air service.

It's about 50% more than FedEx Ground (and WELL worth it!) HOWEVER you will not see it on their website's rate calculator, and they won't point it out to you at the Kinko's service desk -- even though there's a checkbox for it right on the airbill form!! They're keeping it a SECRET -- can you believe it!

You get minimal handling, often delivery in TWO days, a 150 lb. maximum weight limit per package. For example, I once shipped two 130 lbs. ea. ARC tube amps in separate boxes, insured for $5K, including overnight return to me of the COD cashiers check for $325! Arrived without a scratch.

No, the packages are not inspected. The box will be taped if it has come open by mistake. Quite a few do come open due to either poor taping or if it gets crushed by a heavier package. Once in a while you will see DEA agents there with dogs sniffing the boxes but it's really rare.

UPS don't claim for the damage and late deliveries but pitt-ohio tracking is much better in way of safe shipping

Never heard of this.
