     I just thought that I would relate this experience to you.  I recently
ordered some memory and some disks from the States.  I used a major machintosh
mail order house.  When they asked how I wanted it shipped I picked UPS
(United Parcel Service) since I thought they were big, reputable, and safe.

     Obviously, they were not.  In fact, a few days after I placed my order,
two friends of mine who had also used UPS told me that they were 100% 
unreliable.  One person had used them twice, both times the package took
considerably longer than normal surface mail.  The other person used them
three times.  Once he was overcharged by $15, twice he received slow service.

     It is now over a month later.  I have discovered that the order was
shipped on the 29th of November, and was REFUSED by my university on the
14th of December.  I inquired as to why it was refused.  Apparently, UPS has
such *BAD* *UNRELIABLE* service and *DAMAGES* so many packages, that our
university refuses to deal with them and automatically refuses parcels from
them.

     The bottom line....

     Next time the mail order person asks UPS tell them

	'Maurice says JUST SAY NO !!!'

	thanx for listening to my flames
