[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 480043, member: 12508"] USPS Express Mail and most Priority Mail is line-hauled via FedEx. I have not heard that we have anything exclusive with Amazon, but losing LL Bean is a big deal. A few years back, FedEx actually dumped a number of large shippers because the profit margin was so small. Both UPS and FedEx used to cut each other's throats on rates all the time, much to the delight of shippers who would play the sales guys off against each other and walk-away with incredibly discounted shipping. If UPS undercut FedEx just to get the volume (not the revenue), it might not be all that profitable to take over LL Bean. [/QUOTE]
