Like all of us...we've had good experiences and bad experiences with each shipping option.
I ask eBay sellers to please pack the item carefully. Once they pay attention to that, inattention by any shipper can be defeated.
I do like the USPS click-n-ship, and use it all the time.
I wish I could find an old "Yellow Freight Lines" training video. It had a bunch of people around a board room table discussing how they could improve customer satisfaction. They eventually arrived at "don't break their stuff". It's hilarious. Wish I could find it, but I think it was YF internal.
