DHL

Jeremiah McCarthy
I have had scads of Elecraft stuff delivered to my door, either by USPS or UPS...They always ring the doorbell and deliver the goods into my hands...Last week I ordered a WM-2 wattmeter...A couple of days ago we had a snow storm and while shoveling my front stoop, I found my WM-2 buried in the snow---delivered by DHL...

Jerry, wa2dkg

>My thesis advisor made the same mistake. He sent a bound copy of my
thesis from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Buxton, Oregon via DHL. First time
DHL lost the package. So my professor gets another copy printed and
bound. Then he sends it to me via DHL once again. They cannot find my
house so they send it back to New Mexico. Finally I got on the phone to
my advisor and convince him to use the United States Postal Service.
Wonder of wonders I received my bound thesis within two days. I do not
believe I will ever use DHL to deliver packages either to me or for me.
Your story just points up their problems once again.

DHL = Dis Hasbeen Lost -

We liked their rates, but their success rate was too low to merit continuing to use them.
