also on the topic on stinking UPS.
I got a frame shipped from the US sometime in the winter. It was a brand new frame w/ carbon fork.
I paid $300 for it but the seller shipped it off and listed it as used bike parts @ $200.
However, UPS opened it up and saw that it lt was a new frame and decided to estimate its REAL worth at about $1200.
So, when it got to my door, I was charged $200 somthing in customs and duties.
I got them to send it back and it was then re-shipped back to me through USPS without any custom charges. feuf.
my point is, UPS sucks bum. If possible, always try to request USPS if you are having something shipped from US.
