I would advise staying away from UPS. I worked in the receiving department at a tobacco and candy wholesaler for three years and saw banged up packages on a weekly almost daily basis. We got a case of Certs mints one time that had been taped up. When I opened it one corner of the case had been smashed and in a couple of the boxes inside the case the Certs had basically turned into powder. Now it is possible that it has something to do with our local UPS terminal,but from what I have seen I would advise to err on the side of caution and avoid UPS shipping. USPS,FedEx,and DHL seem to be fine from what I've seen.
