^ Define 'box' dan.



Shipping large items from a manufacturer? Truck freight to a regional shipping location or business will be cheaper than shipping that item to your house. Thats is how my hood was shipping and it turned out it wouldn't fit in my suv..lol, but that is the best way to do it. That will save you 50-75 buks normally. For you shipping a large item out, make sure its worth the cost of the item. Split cost w/buyer? Meet buyer half way? All things to think about.

...but how do you know the shipping price if you haven't put it on ebay yet and you don't know the destination zip code? What most people do to be slick is add an outrageous shipping amt to make up for having a low cost of an item. Buy it now price of $200 for 4 riims/tires but the shipping cost is $250 when in actual it might be 100...the buy it now price is cheap and they make up more money for the $150 difference from actual shipping costs to be sly...once a buyer hits "buy it now" they are held to the obligations of the present shipping amt in many cases. What you do is state in the ad the shipping amount or for local pickup. State all bidders must contact you or else their bid will be rejected...you can thin the pool of buyers more w/this.

Put your zip code and have the potential buyer figure out shipping via the courier you are planning on using so they agree w/the purchase or don't buy it but i'd still have all buyers contacting you when bidding to legitimize everything.
