[Elecraft] UPS has lost my KX3 :-(

[Phil Kane]

One final story before Eric lowers the boom:

Many years ago I bought a special hand-drawn cartoon as a present for a
good friend who was retiring.  I had it professionally framed, packed,
and sent via UPS.  The friend reported that the glass in the frame had a
crack when it was received.  Back to UPS who returned it to the sender.
 The latter reported to me that it had appeared that UPS had used it as
a tennis racket and the drawing was totally destroyed.  Because it was a
one-of-a-kind and the artist had passed away in the meantime, I had to
find a substitute in his remaining collection which was not nearly
on-topic as the one that I had originally had found.  It was re-framed
with acrylic replacing the glass and fortunately it arrived back to my
friend without any damage, with UPS picking up the replacement and
reshipping costs.

I prefer FedEx.....'Nuff said....
