[Boatanchors] Collins receiver

[telegrapher at att.net]

UPS finally got their due or i did, one or the other.

I bought a Collins 75A-2A a couple weeks back and it was shipped to me 
with a delivery of 25 July.  Guess what?  I was scanned into the Mesa, 
AZ. office and delivery scheduled for the same day, 25 July.  Today is 1 
August and it's still not here.  I repeatedly got their canned message 
showing that it had been "rescheduled" for delivery the next day.  Same 
thing for today.  What it appears is that they have no idea where it's 
at.  A trace request has been filed.  The trail grows colder with each 
day.  They said it would take 8 business days before they would have any 
information. Any information i want to know about it i will have to 
contact the shipper.  When the shipper filled out the claim, one of the 
boxes asked for his shipper number.  When he put that info in and sent 
it along, UPS said "we have no shipper number like that"!

I guess i'm long overdue to get burnt by UPS but i guarantee you one 
thing, if i can possibly avoid it, UPS will never get another dime of my 
money.  I'm getting to old to have to put up with their BS!  58 lbs and 
a 26 or 30 inch square box just disappeared into space.  I'm really 
hoping that i have to eat my words eventually.

Don't even comment as i'm discharging flame and smoke along with other 
objects at a really rapid rate!
