I don't know man! The news are from today. 
About six years ago, a postage "reseller" program was put in place to drive revenue to USPS. Many customers began to receive relatively small discounts. But Stamps.com, which became a major reseller, reaped the fruits of a spread between its discounted price for postage and the sale price to users, according to people familiar with the matter. The spread, which varied depending on traffic lanes but could hit double-digit levels, became known in the trade as "postal arbitrage."
On February 21, the marriage ended after El Segundo, California-based Stamps.com said it had terminated its "exclusivity agreement" with USPS covering two of its units – the Stamps.com operation and Endicia, a labeling company. On an analyst call that day, Stamps.com CEO Kenneth T. McBride said the decision was made after USPS refused to waive the exclusive nature of the relationship and allow Stamps.com to incorporate other parcel carriers. Stamps.com said its demands were non-negotiable, so it ended the agreement once USPS didn't budge. USPS declined comment for this article. A Stamps.com spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.
