[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 989408, member: 22880"] I'm going to side with "UpstateNYUPSer" on this one. I know for a FACT that FedEx sales will quote rates that are at least 10% lower than UPS rates - all in order to grab market share. Due to the cost structure of Ground, they can do this and STILL make a profit - a handsome profit. There is NOT exact equivalency between UPS and Ground rates offered to customers. There may be very close equivalency between the PUBLISHED rate charts, but the ACTUAL rates offered to customers is another issue. Your source of information regarding FedEx sales either isn't giving you the straight dope, or is bending the truth to a large degree. [/QUOTE]
