There's  no way in hell I will give UPS another red cent of mine due to
their  brokerage fee practices - they are pure criminals.  The post
office is  the ONLY way to go.

David, well said, HOWEVER,  USPS will not accept a Vanagon Grills or Bumpers
for shipping.   So.............what do we do ???????  OVEEDUB sent me my last
order and all  but the grill and bumper could come by USPS so I had the whole
shebang sent by  UPS.  PITA charge of $70 brokerage fee on a $800 order.  PLUS
 everything got a DUTY charge 'cause all items were listed as to their
country of  origin none of them being Canada, US or Mexico !  Just looking for
better  options for my supplies but this one did not work out too well !  Next
option ??????
