Interesting...

I just sold a Drake B-Line on eBay.

When I talked with the gal at Mailboxes Etc, and explained
about the age of the units, that they were not REALLY EASILY
replaced, and they are fragile, she said that she would have
to do a box-in-a-box because lately, UPS and FedEx seem to
be in competition on who can break the most items. The
difference being that UPS pays their insurance claims alot
quicker and easier than FedEx.

I do admit that the boxes I've been receiving lately from
UPS do look like they're using them for field goals...
