You have a permissions problem on your destination path.
rsync errors will be reported regardless of where you redirect them too.
PIPESTATUS will contain the exit code from rsync.
If it is zero (0) GOOD will print, otherwise it will not.
The question is what code is rsync exiting with.
Regardless of that 'code', you will still have the permission problem which 
may or may not be relevant to your goal.
Do
md5sum ${SOURCE_FILE} ${TARGET_FILE}
If the md5sum is the same, fudget'bout it. 

You can also use the '-c' option and (again) fudget'bout it...
YMMV
