I'd have to agree with the description unbelieveably poor service. My incident certainly does'nt compare. I recently purchased a B&W HTM1. The shipper had Oops package and deliver it. Sure enough it was received damaged, tweeter dangling and majic marker covering up scratches in about ten different places. Makes me sick to think about the destruction of such a fine delicate instrument. Upon contacting Oops they demanded the item be repackaged and returned to their office for inspection. Sure enough this thing went half way across the U.S. and shows being received by a third party whom is neither myself of the shipper. Now they won't divulge any info to me demanding that I go through the shipper. Then they wonder why people go postal. I can't help but wonder if losing the item is their way of destroying the evidence to get out of making good on their mistake. Fortunately the seller is working wtih me to try an recover the amount it was insured for.
UPS doesn't just damage and lose Hi-end gear
thought this was pretty funny:
A $7,500 fur coat Mariah Carey donated to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has been lost by the United Parcel Service.
The coat was en route to Mongolia, where it was to be given to refugees to help them keep warm this winter.
Animal-lover Carey sent two floor-length mink coats she received from a rich admirer to PETA bosses, asking them to donate the furs to the charity's annual winter drive to help clothe homeless and needy refugees around the world.
According to PETA sources, one coat was on its way to Switzerland, where it was to be packaged in a sealed container bound for Mongolia to be included in a Swiss Animal Protection Society drive -- but the coat never arrived.
UPS tells PETA the coat cannot be located and is lost. After filing a claim, the anti-fur charity will be reimbursed the full $7,500.
The other coat Carey donated did get to its destination -- Los Angeles -- and will be used as the canvas of a new anti-fur campaign, created by graffiti artist Marcus Suarez.
The coat will be used as a prop at PETA protests later this winter.
