i guess i'm going to be waiting a lot longer.

UPS ended up with the shipment and wants $675 for it.

at first they said "customs fees". then they said it was "international shipping charges".

i paid shipping already. it wasn't anywhere near $675. it never is.

i love UPS. they rule.

This sucks huge sweaty balls.

thanks guys!

so my guy over there talked to interparcel today and it's supposed to be corrected. we'll see, i can go by there after work, after golf, etc.

irony = it's made it way back to, and is now stuck in, Palatine Illinois.

I love ups when shipping domestic....international ... nothing goes ups ever.

GregS · August 13, 2015, 07:07:31 PM

yeah well so not much changed. emails to UPS/UK not getting any love.

hopeful someone wakes up soon.

GregS · August 14, 2015, 06:45:35 AM

ok so this morning the UPS emails are flying. the jist of it seems to be that even though it was paid for via dimensional weight, UPS is stating that it wasn't. So Interparcel and UPS aren't so in agreement.

hopefully the world of customer service reps working on this come to some conclusion. i'd really like to unpack my blue.

i can't believe she took Harris' shirt and he let her get away with it. that's just so mean of her.

someone should spank her.

Maxmbob · August 21, 2015, 01:27:29 PM

@Idahawk, I'm pretty sure your westerner is not an early sixties model!

GregS · August 27, 2015, 08:36:57 AM

well i got her picked up.

UPS put a few nice chips in the lid, and bashed a leg socket into the kettle. surprisingly, it sits level and the chips tell her story.

other than that, she's fine. haha

i'll probably list it in the classifieds at some point with the lemongrass 22. speak up if you want a never used but UPS abused blue wave 18.

Damn, really sorry to hear Greg. Put up a fight with ups if they try to give you the run around.
