I sold an item that, because of its weight, size, and value, I entrusted
to a business offering packing and shipping (by UPS Ground). Although
traveling only from North Carlina to Vermont, the cost of packing,
shipping, and insurance was over $700.00...
After a hiatus of a few years, I resumed selling occasionally at eBay
about a year ago using an account that’s only slightly older (I’d sold
for many years with two other accounts). One of the practices of eBay
that I find irksome is the borrowing of...
After I’ve sold an item, the transaction appears in My eBay Selling
Overview under “Leave feedback”. Since many buyers never post feedback,
and I only reciprocate if they do, this list of transactions seems
destined to grow to an unmanageable length....
I’ve returned to selling at eBay after a hiatus of nearly three years
and have found that, unlike before, I’m almost always shortchanged on

I spoke with customer service representative at UPS Capital this morning

municipality where the business is located to ask if the...
I thought I'd provide an update about this ongoing nightmare. The parcel
- what was left of it - was returned to the packer/shipper. I inspected
the optical printer on 6 May, finding damage and missing parts, so I
asked that the packer/shipper file a...
No, I've not contacted UPS. I can't file an insurance claim until I've
examined the contents of the parcel. UPS tracking indicates the parcel
will be delivered to the packing/shipping business today (5/2) by 7:00
p.m. Since the business closes at 4:0...
Yes, it was the Jaakko Kurhi optical printer. I shipped a nearly
identical machine fifteen years ago using a UPS Store that charged me
close to $400.00 (with an AAA discount) to ship it about 215 miles, so I
thought $704.18 wasn't out of line after t...
Thank you for your guidance in the step-by-step approach to seeking
compensation. Unfortunately, I long ago joined the ranks of senior
citizens and, as such, am ill-equipped to pursue the matter in court.
The business isn't even in my state, and trav...
