Dear OMs and YLs,
I am sorry to hear of these problems but let me tell you that my
KPA1500 was delivered from California to Ireland in four days. It and all
the packaging were in perfect condition.I paid the UPS man with my
credit card when the delivery arrived to our door. This payment was for
all the legitimate EU and Irish taxes. It was all very easy and most
satisfactory. I have only good to say for UPS.I know a FedEx driver
and have only good to say for them as well. So it is best to give good and
bad experiences.

Quite the opposite here ...
I deal with multiple vendors in my business and simply won't buy from any
that ships via the PTA company FedEx.
