I wanted to purchase something via COD and suggested UPS to the seller,
but he refused saying that they were 1. unreliable and 2. took forever to
return the cod check  whereas Fed Ex returned the COD check to the seller
within 24 hours. So, moral of story is, even though UPS is cheaper, it may
pay to go with a more reliable carrier.
