So who do they ship with? For some reason, I remember my very first stop as a driver was a pretty white spiegel box-I remember the house too. I'm full of lots of useless info.

I remember delivering Spiegel, then going back a couple days later and picking up the same item on a call tag. Seemed like everything I delivered was returned. I couldn't understand how they could stay in business when most of the stuff was returned.

I had ladies that actually admitted to me that they used Spiegal like a clothes lending store. They would get their outfit on wed. or thursday- wear it for their shindig over the weekend and return it the next week. The same women did this over and over and over. I too also wondered how they stayed in business.

This isn't about LL Bean but we got handed a newsletter today that said Amazon is switching to exclusively FedEx this month. I imagine most of the volume would be SmartPost... like LL Bean was. The numbers it gave were like 80 million pieces per year. Is that true?

Can't imagine Amazon dumping us and going with friend-up I mean FDX. When is this going to be announced?

Hasnt amazon ALWAYS been UPS? Im still seeing a bunch of packages going internationally fromt ehm

FedEx loses LL Bean and goes down a few dollars today - understandable.

UPS wins LL Bean's business and also goes down a couple bucks today - WHAT ??!!

I really hope that bit about Amazon isn't true. There are some days a third of my route is Amazon. Someone at work was saying they heard Eddie Bauer switched to Fed-Ex also, but I haven't been able to verify that one.

Tracking Your Package
If you have a tracking or delivery confirmation number, you can track your package by clicking the Track Packages Link in Your Account. The shipping method and carrier for your package will be listed in Your Account and in your shipment confirmation e-mail. If you need to contact the carrier, you'll find contact information below.
Note: To speed delivery, shippers may not location-scan all of their shipments. When shipping volume is high, packages are processed in bulk, and the first time a package is scanned may be upon arrival at a regional hub near the destination, or even when the package is delivered. If you don't see any tracking data for your shipment, and the estimated delivery date has not yet passed, please do not be concerned.
Some shipments, such as Standard International shipments, are not trackable.
If you're not sure whether your order has been shipped, check the status of your recent orders in Your Account.

The above came from Amazon's website. I doubt that they would stop using all these companies, and switch to FedEx exclusively.

I just ordered 2 books from amazon. I picked Amazon because I see there packages come thru our system. I was not happy when they shipped USPS. To add insult to injury the one book was "Driving Change, the UPS approach to Business"
Now that hurts.
I guess I need to check who Barnes and Nobel ships with.

Now that you mention it, I haven't seen a Barnes and Noble package in a long time.

Just started. Looks pretty interesting. However, it may be a bit "press releasish"

The first 1/3 of it is, towards the end it gets better. I enjoyed the read, I read maybe the first 50 or 60 pages and stopped for awhile bc it was kinda dry and then one day I picked it up and finished it in an afternoon.

I had a few tell me the same thing. They would order something to wear for the weekend, and then I would come back with a Call Tag the next week. I still see one every once in a while, I think the shipper number is 111-112.

I see a few of these everyday. I have lots of Amazon though, that will be a major loss if we lose them. I was talking to a Nothwestern pilot today I hadn't seen in a while. He said he knew a few Fedex pilots and he said they have been very worried lately......

We get a discount from B&N-5% I think.
