Ordered a Cermark Javelin 14 days ago. UPS flexed the box and crushed the fuse. Called Cermark, they sent out another(UPS AGAIN), with return postage for the first one.
The Second ARF arrived yesterday, this one was damaged as well. In fact, it was damaged the exact same way. Looks like UPS is bending the boxes. The fuse is thicker than the wing, so it gets crushed. Wing and other parts are OK.
UPS is killing the mail order ARF business! I guess they will have to put plywood sheets on top and bottom to get one here in one piece.
Hello from Dallas, Texas!
Seems to be a problem with Texas UPS... The problem got so severe with my orders from Tower... (and other peoples in the area) that Tower started shipping Fed-Ex for anything going through the Belton UPS center. They reshipped ONE ORDER
6 times because I kept sending the mangled boxes back unopened.
When I lived in Iowa...the UPS boxes came through unscathed... and Fed-Ex boxes looked like they'd been run over by the trucks.[&:]
