    I’m not pro company or anything, but why should ups have to pay to do that. I would say they should give them to a third party to auction off, but since they didn’t clear customs, I can’t see how they could do that either.

      If UPS sells you shipping, they need to deliver. Or refund and return. It is basic business deal; don’t promise what you can’t deliver.

      If they wanna blame Trump or customs or whatever, they can do that.

        Well, when they sold it, conditions were one way. Then things changed. That pretty much invalidates the deal. Same as if your contractor opens up a wall and finds asbestos. It ain’t right, but blaming UPS is really blaming the victum in this case. This is all trumps doing. People even told them this would happen.

      FedEx could demand a deposit for return shipping on bounced packages. It’s paperwork to refund that but it helps them avoid indolence.

      Did I just solve the problem of cheap knockoff tech gear being shipped from the discard pile at the child labour factory, guys?

        Sure they could, but them everyone would take thier business to the company that didn’t. Who knows, maybe that is how we got fed ex and not some other company.
