I recently sold a camera and inquired at the local UPS Store about sending it COD. They told me that they try to discourage people from using their COD service because first, the sender has to put up the full dollar amount. In this case, $500. Secondly, if for any reason the receiver did not pick up the package I would be out the $500. I told them never mind. Made no sense at all to me. Make any sense to you, or was the person I spoke to full of beans?
I've done the UPS COD thing a couple of times, I never had to put any money up. That's nuts. The driver collects the cashiers check or money order and it is mailed to you. If there is no check from the buyer, the package gets sent back. The UPS store you were dealing with simply didn't want to do the paper work.
