Here's how it worked.
I took a Kolar Trap combo to my FFL. Had him sign a written letter that this gun was perfect, like new and insured for $9000.00. This took Place on December 5 2007, a Wednesday. I wanted the gun shipped to the buyer's FFL Second Day Air, so it would not sit around a warehouse for a weekend. I promised the buyer it would be there Friday, December 7th a Friday, that's 2 days. I paid $96.00 for this shipment.
To make a long story short, I called my FFL, he said nobody from UPS showed up on Wednesday,( they do everyday). Then UPS show's up Thursday December 6th, finally it showed up on the tracking number as received by UPS.
The Gun will be delivered Monday December 10th, UPS doe's not consider Saturday or Sunday as delivery days unless you pay 20 bucks more.
So for a Second Day Air delivery turns out to be a 6 day delivery which only costs $31.00. They made 61 bucks for nothing. My FFL would not make it right and either would UPS.
Do not use UPS, I will not ever again. And I won't send my guns through this FFL again either.
