[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1080091, member: 14176"] Obviously, [SIZE=6][I][B]we[/B][/I][/SIZE] (UPS) make the decision whether the package is taken to the Post Office for final delivery. It is ludicrous to take a package to the Post Office, giving them a piece of the fee, when we are driving right by it's final destination. If we were to embrace these packages in densely populated urban settings, even at a reduced margin, we could be building our infrastructure to dominate the home shopping phenomenon that is presently playing out. The residence that is getting one or two packages a week, will soon be receiving two or three daily. I have been making this assertion on this board since the inception of SurePost and now, little by little, we are taking back some of these packages. Hopefully we haven't given away too much in the interim. [/QUOTE]
