Smart move Mike, I finally gave up trying to save a Sparc 10 shipped to me via
UPS. They really
had to "work" on this one. They reduced 2/3 of it to half the original height.
Then after seeing it
along side a normal one and saying "no problem, we'll pay immediately", it took
right at 30 days
for Steve at Pastech to get the check. I'm with you, only more so. If an eBay
auction seller says
they only ship UPS, I don't bid.
