Just had a pack land from UPS... WTF?!?

Hey ya'll, I just had an order come in via UPS. I've ordered with this vendor before and USPS was always the shipping method previously. Had I known my vendor was going to use a private courier I wouldn't have ordered.

I'm not going to divulge the vendor for now, they deserve a chance to explain (I've now inquired about it with them). I suppose I just want to make sure everyone is on alert with their shipping option selections.

Also: In case it is not known, Fed-EX and UPS have much more power when it comes to opening and investigating packages than the USPS does. In the DNM world private couriers are not highly regarded as a safe choice.

If I was a vendor and I had a list of things never to do, right at the top of the list above 'Sell to MPs' and 'List on eBay' would be 'Don't use private couriers'.

You're just asking to get butt fucked if anything happens. Imagine the outer packaging gets damaged so UPS/FedEx/DHL decide to open it. They've got the vendors details AND the buyers.

FUUUUCKKK THAT!

It is known, Kaleesi.

UPS doesnt necessarily have the vendor info. He could have had someone else send it, or used a gift card or such to pay online behind vpn /proxies and dropped it off at the UPS store by someone.

It's still a really bad idea!

I had a pack land internationally from ups before. 4 days in transit. I like to live dangerously, lol.
