[QUOTE="PrimeUPS, post: 1679794, member: 56792"] I know plenty about business acumen. I would imagine that whoever sits with Amazon at the table has a good idea of what it costs us to deliver for them. They also know what the volume is like and in which areas. I've seen UPS do VERY FEW things and continue to do them if they didn't make the company money. Herego, even with the hefty discount, I presume we are making money off of them. Now yes, the adage is true - first attempt is profit, second attempt breaks even, and third attempt is a loser. There's a reason why we only do three attempts. Someone has figured that out. I've also seen the massive volume that a few CPU's of Amazon can toss at a sort, probably enough to pay for that sort for the week in a matter of hours. Even at discounted rates. You have to remember, even a odd shape irreg at 100 lbs discounted 50% is still a lot of money. [/QUOTE]
