Karls, I am going by what UPS told me is required to get them to honor a claim. Am passing on what I was told by a senior person at UPS.
UPS ??? Do they ever pay a claim???
I have been trying to collect from UPS for almost two months after they destroyed one of a pair of Quicksilver amps I bought off Audiogon. They dropped it and bent the chassis so bad I had to replace the chassis with a new one. I charged them 175.00 total for repairs and I can't get them to pay. They charged for insurance but they never want to pay. Think about this the next time you ship a nice piece of equipment and UPS wrecks it ...
