Model Railroading > To Oddball Decals RE: UP

Just a quick question about the UP Licencing.
How does UP figure out what to charge you?
Is it buy the piece or your last year sales or projected sales or???????????????????
Just curious for any info.
Thanks

Perhaps an inquiry like this would be better sent directly to the company in question, either via email or by picking up the telephone and asking.

Posting it here and hoping the company sees it is like tossing a piece of mail in the street and hoping the intended recipient happens across it and notices it.

Just a thought...

UP does not charge me anything yet!! As per Contract with UP, if my UP related decal sales are less than $3500.00 a year, I don't owe them one red cent!! If my UP related decal sales are over that amount, I pay .03 cents for ever UP related decal I sell. So a $3.50 decal would be 10.5 cents owed to UP, does this make since??

So last year my UP related decal sales were only $2769.94.

This is what Brenda Mainwaring told me.

Well they are in stock, just complain to Western Star why they haven't ordered any decals from me.
