What kind of UPS collect experience is out there?


Some time ago I sold a pair of speakers to a fellow in SF, CA and he wanted to do UPS collect. It took UPS 40 days to get the money from CA to Wash. State. Recently, I sold an amp to a fellow in NY and he wanted to do UPS collect. This time it took them 27 days to get payment from NY to me in Washington. Any similar experiences?

Yeah, and sometimes the buyer is concerned that he has sent a complete stranger a wad of cash with only a promise to ship the paid for goods. It all comes down to trust and honesty. *Most* folks are honest, especially Audiogoners. I have yet to get burned by an Agoner, and I sure hope it never happens. Now FleaBay, that's a whole 'nother ballgame...
