| Class Action Suit against UPS? Fed Ex claims vs UPS claims--------------------We had one ship claim in 2000, and it just happened to be with Fed Ex.They are being very difficult with this rather small (under $300) claim.They seem to have adopted the practices of RPS, a company ... | |
| Class Action Suit against UPS? Fed Ex dos not "cost more" than UPS.Compare FED EX 1, 2, & 3 day to UPS 1, 2, & 3 day.Compare Fed EX ground to UPS ground.Same prices, more or less, and Fed Ex is often LESS.If you ship fragile equipment that isn't packed well (and often e... | |
| Bi-wiring speakers Waste of $. We tell people this and they rarely listen.Their speakers are bi-wireable, so they think this is best.Dunlavy, Sonus, Genesis, and others agree.Speakers are "bi-ampable", and somehow this has changed to "bi-wirable".Also, few people kn... | |
