[QUOTE="BrownSuit, post: 429174, member: 14437"] Paperless Invoicing will soon make their job obsolete. As for our International Volume, there is a correlation between our volume and the value of the US Dollar with Small Package Volume as most of the volume is export in nature. The lower the dollar, the higher the volume, vice versa. At one point the dollar was at a low, but notice that the last month it's been on a tear. Competition is fierce on import volume, with other carriers cuthroat on even intra-country shipments as UKGuy mentioned a while back. That combined with the nature of import shipments generally lead to larger items that would go SCS. You don't have people in China sending eBay or retail shipments to the United States. You do have the reverse happening. [/QUOTE]
