Col,

Maybe you could have worded that ......... "I've learnt who I can trust" .........I say that as I've never had problems with AP but have numerous issues with courier companies, particularly with work related items.........ie: at various times, two out of three shipments from an online Sydney based company somehow managed to be eventually found , not here in Newcastle, but in Perth, 4 to 6 weeks after going missing.

Back when I was importing a lot of musical/studio gear from the US, for smaller items it was impossible to beat the service between the US Postal Service and AP, for larger items (instruments, etc), DHL were without peer. At that time, the horror stories about both FedEx and UPS were found all over the www.

Now obviously, you've had vastly different experiences BUT, I have to ask........apart from venting on IIS which ultimately, will achieve SFA, what actions have you taken to make your frustrations known to people who might just make a difference........like maybe writing to your local "member", etc.
