	I have never had trouble with FEDEX.  I have had one bad
	experience with UPS.  When I shipped much of mu tools to
	Scottsdale, three of the boxes showed up ripped open WIDE.
	I lost about half of my 1100 chasing punches.  They were
	made ca. the 1830s, so they even had antique value.  I lost
	my shirt on that one to the tune of at least $3K.  I didn't
	care a whit for the money.  The punches were irreplaceable.
	What pissed me off also was their attitude, which sucked
	major rod and before that time I'd never encountered it.
