    my 2 cents

    just out of curiosity, why didnt you guys use a third party for a highend gun trade like that? that way, there would have never been a problem like what you guys are in now. i know it cost a little extra to pay for a third party but isnt it worth it in the end?

    Edit: i say that shipping with usps is much better then ups/fedex. i have shipped over 130 parcels through them and never had a problem. but i havent had a problem with any of those shippers. and if you have a problem with your parcels being thrown around by what ever shipper you use, WRAP/PAD your items really good before you ship.

    one last thing. has anybody used DHL as a shipper for trades?

        He did not try to screw me. Just UPS lost the gun and I feel bad for him. I hope it all works out for him but it was not my fault. I just want everything I sent him back. I have benn without a gun for 3 months.

              I have never shipped paintball gear via DHL, but have shipped many computer/networking components via all three major carriers (UPS / FedEX / DHL) and have always had bad luck with UPS and always had good luck with FedEX and DHL. DHL is great for international shippments and I pretty much only ship overseas via DHL.

                    How does UPS or USP "lose" a package...? It's not lost, it's stolen. Why do they say it's lost when it's obvious that their employees are stealing it.
                    It's not like these packages are traveling through the mine shafts from the Temple of Doom.
                    I had USP "lose." a 30 pound package in transit last spring. How do you "lose" something that is heavy enough to make you grunt when you pick it up?

                    What really bothers me is that THEY expect ME to pay THEM extra to make them financially responsible if one of THEIR people steals my stuff in transit and then they make it difficult to collect compensation if one of THEIR employees rob me.

                      Larch - they aren't making you pay for insurance. It is what it is. Technically UPS loses if their employees steal from you, so in the end, you win, UPS loses. They aren't being punks by charging you for insurance.

                        Actually, if employees are stealing these packages (especially a 30lb one) I would be shocked and they would have to be very smart. I do not know about FedEx, but the security at UPS is very tight. I have a few friends that worked their way up through the ranks starting as loaders and are not front office managment. They always talked about the security. But then they also use to talk about kicking the boxes across the floor that had any fragile stickers on them. They were the ones that taught me to avoid such stickers on my packages.

                          Well I got my gun back today. It would have been nice if it didnt have paint all over it. Also it is missing the Lv 10 bolt and 1 of the Scepter inserts. Hard to tell if the gun works with out the bolt

                              About time you got it back... Geesh...

                              That sucks about the Lvl 10 and it being dirty... I'd make sure your valve is even the valve you originally sent him...
