What is your zipcode? I will check saturday @ the post office & get it weighed & see how much it would be to ship it to where you are so maybe it wouldn't cost so much it's just the dimensions of it that makes the shipping cost a little high cuz it is very light weight so I will get it weighed & make sure if nothing else I will get my husband to outbid you before its over & that way you don't get stuck with it. what is your high bid?
I used to ship baby bumpers frequently, and usually the most economical way to do it is to use a plain box and send it parcel post. They are often under 2 lbs. boxed, or using paper grocery bags for packaging is another option to keep the weight under 2 lbs. It's a bit more tricky to figure out if you don't have a postal scale at home.
Rozarie You could ship these bumpers in a medium flat rate box for less than $6.00. WOW! I had no idea you could ship in a flat rate medium for less than $6.00 I am very interested in knowing more about this rate?
If I were you I would ship by weight parcel post, it will cost a lot less. If you have a food saver you can put the bumpers in one of those bags and suck out all the air, and it will fit in a flat rate envelope. I did that once with full size crib bumpers. Just suggestions!
If the flat rate boxes are that expensive then the rates have gone up. They weren't that expensive just a few months ago when I used them. But that doesn't surprise me since the USPS is losing their business due to the internet. They need to make up their losses some how.
Hi, so I just cleaned up the drama on here there will not be anymore drama tolerated I apologize about any drama that has taken place. Please don't take me as rude but allow me to be CLEAR... If you do not agree or like shipping costs DO NOT bid. I will say the shipping cost I posted is potentially the best cheapest I can be able to get IF YOU WIN IF IT COSTS ME ANY LESS TO SHIP THAN WHAT I ASKED [[[[ I WILL REFUND DIFFERENCE]]]] I am not trying to overcharge & I will not keep anymore than it takes to ship it. Please just take into consideration this is not a little bitty thin bumper it is thick padded I will fold & squish as much as possible to fit in as small of a pkg as possible to save on shipping. It is large but light weight so it MAY cost less to ship then what I asked I will not know til I try to ship it because I don't have a postal scale at home so as stated before I will refund any difference.
