An easy step that can be taken to make sure an item is not abused by the delivery person (and I agree UPS is generally the worst), is to ask the seller to ship with a signature required upon delivery. It is less convenient, but will circumvent having the item damaged or destroyed. Nothing is 100% fool-proof, but if the delivery person knows they will have to face the recipient in person, they will not be so cavalier in their treatment of the package.
Shipping 80lb amps.
I have an offer to purchase my 80lb Odyssey Kismet Mono's from a buyer in Alberta ,Calgary, Ca.. Shipping from Detroit area of Mich.
As far as insurance goes. Buyer is going to pay but who's name should it be in for a possible future claim?
Any carriers to recommend? They would just ship in original packaging ( boxes) .
Thanks,
Russ
