Fedex is non-unioun. I can't say that I've been that happy with UPS but at least they are organized... I'm a union supporter.

No, the problem is people are STUPID! If you were to pack your crap properly your crap wouldn't get broken! PERIOD.trailhacker said:Maybe thats the problem with UPS, lazy employees that can;t get fired if they tried becuase they got seniority (cough, certified drunk, cough)....neaky:

...sorry, after reading all these posts, I felt I had right, no, an obligation to contribute.
Let's make this the longest rant in Ridemonkey history!
Yeah, huge profits in bicycle retail/repair. Everybody should quit their day job and open up their own shop.BoomSplat said:...TO HIM IT IS ALL ABOUT MAKING A HUGE PROFIT.
Well I think this can of worms has been opened a few times. Darren has his way of doing things. Not everyone agrees with it. Some people take it "to the streets"....then Darren gets mad at the internet for broadcasting slanderous things. (to me the solution seems simple, but again, I'm just a jerk). But hey. DHZ has been in business for a while now, so he must be doing something right...lord knows what it is. But something.stinsonblvd said:Thanks MMike, and thanks to mtbike to open this can of worms that needed to be opened...
I don't know if I totally agree with that.Certified Drunk said:No, the problem is people are STUPID! If you were to pack your crap properly your crap wouldn't get broken! PERIOD.

A couple of years ago I ordered a new bass guitar from an online dealer. It was the last one they had, and they don't make them any more. The day UPS delivered it, my wife was indesposed when he knocked at the door. She quickly hurried to the window to look out and check who it was. She say the guy DRAGGING the box containing my bass down our concrete steps and down the walkway back toward the truck. She ran out and caught the guy. He drug the thing around so much that he wore a freakin hole in the box. It wore through so much that a corner of my bass was actually dragging the ground. She even had to pick up a couple of small pieces that had broken off of a corner of the body.
When I complained to UPS, they said it was improperly packaged, which is why it got damaged. Doesn't make a lot of sence to me. Poor packaging or not (I don't think it was too bad, there was a ton of packing paper in there), I think it was the fact the guy was dragging it down setps and across pavement that did it.
Im' not saying that all UPS employees are like that, but they are not all angels.
Anyway, sounds like this Mtbike got screwed by UPS twice, and by DHZ to boot. Do you need a smoke now?
You're kindof a Peckerwood.MMike said:He did it on purpose because he knew what kind of music you were going to play with it.......
Wow...cynical, sarcastic, and literate....Man, you just completed the trifecta....Mtbike said:Squirrel,
If your so tired of the thread, stop replying. Your the only one who seems to have a problem with the thread.
Isn't it fall, shouldn't you be pounding acorns up your a s s or something?
I figured you were a DHZ fan. And there is something I can do. I can continue to tell people not to shop at DHZ. I can continue to tell people my story of the level of service I recieved from Darren.Secret Squirrel said:Wow...cynical, sarcastic, and literate....Man, you just completed the trifecta....
It sucks that you got the service that you did, no doubt. I'm a constant customer of theirs for years now, and I like Darren. I haven't had a problem with them, ever...So if that makes me an ass-nut packing squirrel, I guess you'd know...Whatever...Go on with your rant thread about something you can't do anything about...I'll be in the forest riding my Mtbike nice and hard with the squirrels...
That's a great idea!! Why not? Darren was born here...I must have it in me somewhere... Let's see...Talkingmonkey said:You're kindof a Peckerwood.
Maybe you could start a DHZ where you live?
Ah...but what did they DO to it before they sent it to you? I bet it touched "body parts" before they boxed it up...ewwwwww...ioscope said:Just to put in a good word for DHZ. I bought the wrong 12mmTA and they sent me another in exchange. Free of charge, no hassle.
Perhaps you just needed a different word.MMike said:Notice I refrained from using the word "insert" in my previous post. That would have been unpleasant.
ohhhhhhhh SNAP!Talkingmonkey said:You're kindof a Peckerwood.
