So, I will be relocating in the next few months and need to figure out how to move a few fragile electronic things (computers, lcds, printer). Common sense tells me just to Fedex everything, but this statement in the CoC got my attention:
8) FRAGILE AND PERISHABLE ITEMS
A) UA DOES NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGE TO FRAGILE
ARTICLES PRESENTED AS CHECKED BAGGAGE UNLESS APPROPRIATELY PACKAGED IN AN ORIGINAL FACTORY SEALED CARTON, CARDBOARD MAILING TUBE OR CONTAINER, OR CASE DESIGNED FOR SHIPPING SUCH ITEMS, OR SUITABLY PACKED WITH PROTECTIVE INTERNAL MATERIAL.
Does this imply that so long as I have original packaging, UA accepts liability?
I'll probably carry on the lcds, since they're the most likely to break, but if I can check the other stuff, that's a huge bonus.
