I remember an article, which might have been linked on Slashdot, where someone ordered computer gear and monitors and it was shipped UPS, and it came in a box that was abused so badly it looked like it had literally been dragged behind the truck. There was also damage to the items etc. The article even had accompanying pictures... it was terrible to look at, and you had to wonder how the UPS guy could deliver that with a straight face.
He even had one hell of a time getting them to cough up money for the replacement, even though couriers are insured for damages.
