Beware of UPS... the quoted $$ is just a quote.
I gave them the measurements and weight to the 1/10th of an ounce and they "quoted" me a price.
They actually told me it was the price (s) for the 4 bikes I was shipping from Orlando to Astoria Oregon.
Well imagine my surprise when we were half way across Idaho and I get the email with the price about 30% higher in an e-mail confirmation.
Hmmm... I called and eventually got escalated to senior management in Atlanta--- who said it was a quote not a firm price. I replied I was told it was based on distance shipped --- weight --- and size.
Was it off in distance--- NOPE the cities had not moved
Was I off in my measurements? ---- NO dead on...
Weight??? Nope
He said it was like an price in the store ---subject to Change Hmmm--- the difference is in a store if the milk is marked $3 per gallon and at the checkout it is $4 ---- I can leave it and not buy it ---ONCE I SHIP IT THERE IS NO OPTION
STAY AWAY FROM UPS
I now fly southwest and have a coupled bike -- no fee other than the one I paid to buy it
