I recently sold an item on eBay. The item sold for 100 dollars. I took it to UPS because I thought they were the most professional shipping company and would be cost effective. My mother uses UPS to ship her promotional products around the country so I figured they'd be the right choice. Oh boy was I wrong. The item sold for 100 dollars and I had to ship it to Kentucky from here (California). They wanted to charge me 40 dollars to ship it there and that's not even the worst part! They wanted to charge me 20 dollars for a cardboard box to put the item in! The item was medium sized and weighed less than 20 pounds. Seriously that is an outrageous amount of money to ship one item. Are you guys joking? I've learned from this experience that not only will I never use UPS to ship anything ever again, but I will also not buy anything that will be shipped through UPS. With prices like that you guys probably wont even notice losing one costumer, but I will never give any business to you for as long as I have to ship or order things.
