I think the biggest issue people have with UPS is the brokerage fees they make you pay. For us Canadians, when ordering something from, say, the U.S., UPS will collect a brokerage fee on top of shipping and taxes. The brokerage fees are sometimes reported to be in excess of 50% of the price of the goods, so you can all image the pain.
Now, Canada Post would charge about $5 CDN as a handling fee for smaller packages, and a little higher for larger packages but definitely nowhere near what UPS charges. Domestically, UPS may be well and all, so be wary when ordering internationally.
