(I believe they do get an incentive to steer folks to UPS)[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana]It was Fedex that said they would not maintain their associated shipper relationships with any store that rebranded to UPS Store. [/FONT][/COLOR] From the article: "FedEx was among the shippers available to customers of Mail Boxes Etc. But because it views UPS as a direct competitor, [URL="http://fedex.com/"][U][COLOR=#0000ff]FedEx[/COLOR][/U][/URL] will not handle parcels sent through UPS-branded stores." [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana]Seems like he has other beefs, but if his main issue was choice of shippers, maybe he should be suing Fedex.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
