FWIW, i have recieved over 100 parcels in the 3 years i have been open for business. Of those, UPS has managed to break/damage 21 out of 37 breakable items, out of 45 total. USPS has damaged 4 out of 35 breakables, out of 49 total. Fedex broke 2 out of 4 breakables, out of 12 total. I do my best never to use UPS. Some of the items recieved were so destroyed they look like they were run over by a truck.It is a major aggravation to get your money back from UPS. Out of the 28 parcels i have sent out this past year via USPS, none were damaged at all. I pack very carefully! - Ed
