Unless you are paying for a packing service, all of those shipping quotes seem awfully high for such a lightweight sewing machine (compared to the vintage and antique metal ones) without a case. I have shipped machines for over 15 years, and shipping would more likely run about $20-40, depending on locations. To get a better estimate, weigh the machine, then add about 5 pounds for your packaging, then use a package size of about 18"x23"x15" which should accomodate most any sewing machine without a case. UPS does include free insurance, which is a plus, and that is correct that it will likely be a bit cheaper on heavier items. You can go to the website to get an estimate. I would hate for you to scare-off potential bidders with the shipping quotes that are way more than it is actually going to cost. I just shipped a Pfaff embroidery machine and embroidery unit in 2 separate packages to Germany for about $200 (total) priority mail insured, and I just received an all-metal machine in its case that I bought on Listia from several states away for about $20 USPS. Good luck on the listing, and I hope this information might help!

Hi, Yes I know that those quotes are high. The machine is not boxed up yet, I used the total packaging weight it was when i received it to give quotes. It definitely won't cost as much as I quoted, but people asked for estimates.

Again. If after I tell the winner what the shipping costs are, and they think it's too much, then I I will give back the credits no questions asked.

I have old Husquavarnas with low gear that with slow-but sure power strokes. Keep in touch!

Wish I could bid but trialpay doesn't work and won't give me my points!

The best way to ship this would be parcel post as its the cheapest method, it will take a little longer but if you insure it you would be covered.

well im hoping i have enough credits and it a bit lower i really need a sewing machine to get more crafty if the world is ready for that lol

Thank you for giving her this information.

Have you tried the UPS site yet? They will come pick it up and insurance is included.
I use it thru PayPal sometime when things are odd size/weight. I assume it will be 80-$110.00 to 49090?

Dec 30th, 2011 at 2:35:42 PM PST by

hi there, no it probably won't cost that much. I have my own discounted rate that I receive when I ship stuff. and since It's not boxed and ready to roll, the quote is no where near accurate (from USPS site)

Dec 31st, 2011 at 6:43:21 AM PST by

Shipping via UPS would be FAR less in cost. You may want to look into that. USPS is cheaper when shipping lightweight items, but not heavy items. UPS is expensive for lightweight items but more economical for heavy things. A good rule of thumb (one that I use)....if it's light, go with USPS.....if it's heavy, go with UPS. (The only drawback to UPS, is that the buyer MUST have a residential address....they don't ship to PO boxes).

What would shipping be for zip 38351? Fanned and watching

Dec 28th, 2011 at 5:46:01 PM PST by

Hi Susan! I will find out and let you know exactly how much.

Dec 28th, 2011 at 6:33:25 PM PST by

Sooooo... what is your NEW machine and how do you like it???

Dec 30th, 2011 at 1:39:50 AM PST by

it's a singer curvy and I liked it very much at first, but now i'm ready for the big kahuna! I want to be able to sew thick leather and denim! looking at a pfaff or a Juki

Hi, How much to 65649?

Dec 29th, 2011 at 11:27:19 PM PST by

USPS says $107.00, but I know it will be much lower than that. BUT like I said earlier, if you win and after a more accurate calculation you deem the shipping costs are too high, I will give your credits back.

Dec 30th, 2011 at 6:37:56 AM PST by

Never mind...I found it on the face of the ad

Dec 29th, 2011 at 4:09:12 PM PST by

What state are you located? I can't seem to find it anywhere, even on the map....I'm new???

Dec 29th, 2011 at 4:07:35 PM PST by

**NOTE**This is my first auction and since the shipping will more than likely be high as this machine is heavy. If the winner decides they do not want to pay the shipping fees for their address, I will return the credits.

Dec 29th, 2011 at 9:53:24 AM PST by

it looks like it's going to estimate $87.02 to 38351 and $85.83 to 28214.
Those are just estimates though.
