The Post Office is wonderful until something goes wrong. I purchased a reproducer from Peru back in 1994, the clerk said to mail the Postal Money order Certified so I could trace it. It got lost and I went back and ask them to trace it a month later. I was informed the could only trace inside the US. It took me over six months to get a refund on the Postal Money order, I finally found a lady that told me to call her friend who took care of cases like mine.
I sent a reproducer to Oz and the post office mistakenly sent it sea mail when I paid for air mail. In both cases no refund was offered for their mistake. I recently received cylinder records that arrived broken, after waiting over thirty minutes a 'supervisor' came out and told me they were not packed properly and no claim could be honored. UPS is worse. Fed Ex is the only company that is decent when things go wrong. So far all the phono items I have shipped Fed Ex have arrived safely. > That being said, this just goes to show the sate of the US education > system since we were blessed with the Department of Education almost 50 > years ago.
