My experience with UPS is that they wont pay out any insurance claim
unless they impale it with a forklift.
They smashed a Micropoise tone arm on me a few months back. I never got
a dollar from that even though the box had been flattened.
And yes, the forklift example is real.

I agree with this too. Although I'm not sure that it's easier to
collect from FedEx since I've never had any damage from them to find
out. FedEx also has much shorter lines to stand in for some strange
reason.

I highly recommend if anyone purchases a phono that the seller says
will be sent UPS, ask them to send it Fed Ex ground. I have had 2
triumphs and an order of auto parts damaged by UPS. UPS is wonderful
for small, light parts, but larger ones seem to get dropper or
crushed by their automatic alligator mouth sorting system.
Save a phono, use Fed Ex. Also Fed Ex is much easier to collect from
if there is an accident.
