[QUOTE="alpha x, post: 1909127, member: 60697"] It's not that they would lose it [I]to anyone[/I]. They just would preclude FedEx Express from [I]getting[/I] the business, because of the policy not to allow anything over 150lbs into the Express system. Say something weighs 175lbs and ShipperA wants to ship via Express. If FedEx checks the [I]actual[/I] weight, and it is over 150, they have to turn down the package and get $0. Conversely, if FedEx fails to get the [I]actual[/I] weight, and if the shipper puts "150lbs" on the ASTRA, then FedEx gets big$$ for shipping a "150lb" package. [/QUOTE]
