blackedout96 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Sold these to a guy on ebay but shipping ended up being $130. Neither of us wanted to pay that so mutually decided to just refund the purchase. They are packaged and I will ship if you're willing to pay. Located in southwest Michigan for pick-up. Let me know if you need em! Quote
shogs Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Take them to another post office. Ups ground or fedex ground should be cheaper than that. Just a thought. Quote
blackedout96 Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Posted August 3, 2009 ya the post office wont take it because the package is too big. UPS and FedEx were both $130, I couldn't believe it. Quote
bode1 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 I shipped a complete set from NJ to MI to a guy on here. I initially got a quote of $130ish too. Ended up wrapping them in saran wrap, kinda like shrink wrapping, they ended up being less than $40, and the fronts were uncut. Had something to do with the UPS store too. I took it to a regular ups place the 2nd time instead of a pack and ship place. Good luck. Bump Quote
dajogejr Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Yep...paid about 100 bucks here to ship a set of Maier front and rear, fronts where cut. I'll NEVER sell plastic again unless the buyer wants to shell out 100 for it. Good luck..put it up on Craigslist! Quote
blackedout96 Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Posted August 3, 2009 $100. Somebody come get em Quote
tundish2800 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Bode i just sold those plastics. Shrink wrap them then ship them its cheaper Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 When i sold my blue set to a guy on here it only cost him $25 via greyhound bus. Something for you to look into anyways. :thumbsup: Quote
TLONG Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 YEP WRAP THEM UP IN PLASTIC AND SHIP UM...LAST SET I SHIPPED WAS ACROSS THE US FOR LIKE 35 BUCKS. I'D LIKE TO BUY IF YOU CAN SHIP FAIRLY CHEAP Quote
blackedout96 Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Posted August 4, 2009 I think I'm going ot try Greyhound shipping to the guy on ebay first. If he just doesn't want them anymore I'll let you know. Quote
bode1 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 I went the greyhound route on something large before, it was a real pain in the ass. Had to pay storage because i couldn't get to Atlantic City for a few days. Trust me wrap em up in saran wrap and ship em UPS you have to kinda put them just right to make them as small as possible. and that set still had fronts uncut. It was Tundish I shipped that set to, the first quote was well over $100 I remember being dumbfounded how much they wanted to ship them, and it ended up being less than $40 I think in the end. Was his idea to do it that way, I didn't think it would be that cheap. I ended up being surprised. PS the bike looks good Tundish Quote
