Shipping FedEx
1- One keyboard, carton was 51x20x15
2- 2-Weight 57lb
3-Going from West Palm Beach, Florida to California, ground.
4-Charge $59
I went back because we forgot to add the insurance. I added the max. which was only $500, I wanted $3,000. I thought should I chance it -- $500 for damages and I might have to accept the rest. The thought ended when I was told that the $500 was for damage and not for loss. There was no coverage for loss.
He then handed me a card I was to call them to get the balance insured. The company was affiliated with FedEx. After making three calls to the company and getting their message machine I was angry. This was not the first time I shipped a keyboard with FedEx, all this was new.
I went back and asked to speak to the manger, nice man with very few answers. He said that I could get the keyboard covered if I sent it air for $189.54. I took the keyboard back and went to UPS, their price with all the coverage was $139.35. Five day delivery I hope.
Is FedEx saying we do not want to ship large cartons? If I was given all the correct info $189 wont work. The smaller box I shipped with FedEx weighed 9lbs and cost me $14.79 and the supplied the carton and packed it.
Not a good experience, John C.
