[QUOTE="TUT, post: 2062107, member: 29298"] The article hits this one point to consider, you would be buying Fedex for what it is worth today, all their business all their customers, not what it would be after Amazon bought them. If Amazon did buy Fedex there are some very big companies that would immediately go to UPS since they won't ship with their competitor and well that right there is Amazons first loss in the deal, they would immediately be X smaller losing these other big fish. We've seen from other articles, Amazon is large but still not critical mass level of volume that can really turn the tide for either UPS or Fedex. All of a sudden Amazon is not only delivering their stuff (their concern today) but everything else Fedex carries? Why do they want to do that? To me it seems buying out regionals just for their needs makes more sense and would be cheaper and much easier to get rolling. [/QUOTE]
