[78-L] Who do these guys think they are? ^

[H D Goldman]

Hi David,

Same thing here.  Went in to pay for invoice a week ahead of time & was greeted with the increase & a take it or leave it attitude.

So major price increases, UPS/FedEx to PO boxes & even rudder counter agents    ….. whoopee.

On the upside, it's been years since they lost or damaged a package.

Cheers,

Duane Goldman
