Please note that you pay your shipper for shipping services. We will release to your shipper only after the item has been paid in full and you have advised us via fax or email to do so. We cannot accept phone call release. Your shipper must pick up the item at our location during normal business hours.
A few things to consider:
Most of the cost of shipping is normally packaging/handling cost. You will not find businesses who will ship items with $0 to a few $ in handling cost for you. They are in business to make a profit. Don't expect to get a small item shipped for $5 - $10, it is not going to happen.
Shippers have minimum handling fees. You are going to pay more in shipping/handling compared to sellers who also offer shipping, please factor this cost into the amount you are willing to bid. We can only provide estimated weights and dimensions. You may pay slightly more or less if the item weighs slightly more or less.
If you are unfamiliar with UPS size guidelines, the following link will give you more detail: http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/resourses/prepare/weight_size.html
We are more than happy to assist however we can, but you are responsible for arranging and determining the cost of shipping. You are strongly advised to work this out before you place a bid.
