B.C. man sets off suit against UPS
By TERRI  THEODORE

VANCOUVER (CP) - Hidden fees seem to be an everyday irritant  for
consumers, but a B.C. man is so angry about a fee charged by  United
Parcel Service he's willing to become the point man for a  class-
action lawsuit.

It's about time !  Try  DHL some time.  I just had a tranny come in here from
AA Transaxle in  Duval, WA.  Brokerage fee was $7 !  Yes, seven bucks.  UPS
and  Fedex both charge exorbitant brokerage fees.  Time has come to put a stop
to that practice !  You got my attention.

Cheers,
