Shipping price depends on from where it is shipped. Every country agrees to accept mail from everyone else. So the trick is to ship it from a country with very low postage rates. This means the people in Europe are best off buying from China as shipping from China is cheap.
If if must be shipped from the US then you can use flat rate shipping. Domestically flat rate has no weight limit but international it does have a limit. You get the best shipping rate if 1) You fill the flat rate box rite up to the weight limit and 2) Ship it using your eBay account as eBay gets a good discount off the normal US Post office rates. Ship it using the same system you used to ship sold packages, just change the name on an old shipment and "re-send" it. I just send a box that would have gone for $4.80 and paid $3.70 although it is light weight and local. There is no way to send it cheap but discounted USPS Flat Rate is the least bad way I have found, other then buying from China On Thu, Jun 21, 2018 at 4:52 PM andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com> wrote: > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: dave engvall <dengv...@charter.net> > Date: 22 June 2018 at 00:19 > Subject: shipping > To: andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com> > > > Hi Andy, > > I'm trying to post on emc-users and getting rejected claiming the my > isp is a source of spam. > > What I'm trying to do is hang a request (OT) on the list looking for > cheap and not so fast ways of getting alloy steel across the pond.
