Just thought I'd share, I have a couple of "old school" Track balls for sale.

Were you in the discussion on shipping costs a week or so ago? I Won't say any more about this.

$52.00 for shipping from Mass to Idaho. Don't want either of those balls that bad.

FYI, I DO NOT set the shipping costs. If it costs that much to ship from MA to Idaho, then so be it, take it up with UPS. I put in that any buyer pays ACTUAL shipping. I do not have a fixed rate. I always try to ship using the cheapest method. I'm sorry if it costs that much to ship from MA to Idaho, but I do not set the shipping rates. If there is a cheaper method than ground shipment, please let me know and I'll look into it. I don't think FedEx or DHL are much cheaper.
Also, if I had a set shipping cost, I'd probaby be paying someone to take these off my hands. If my shipping cost was a set amount like $22-24 as most people, then I would probably end up paying out more than I would take in. That's why I set the initial bids so low and also allow the bidders to figure out their own shipping. If it costs too much to ship, don't bid.

there is something wrong with that listing, when i do a shipping calc via ups from your location to mine, it is only 11.47 to ship, but your auction shows 30.90 to ship, i would go check to make sure your shipping weight it right, i am sure the high shipping is severly tampering with bids on it. just an fyi as i ship to the east coast all the time and nothing is ever more then 14 bucks for me, right at the ups termiinal, less if i do it online

I just checked and opened an account with FedEx. It seems as though their rates are MUCH cheaper than UPS. Massachusetts to California was only $15.71 for ground. I will note in my ebay listings that FedEx is available too.

Yeah, I figured it out. I had the wrong package size selected. I accidentally listed the item as a Large Package/Oversize. Once I read the specifications for package sizing I realized that. I am attempting to change that now.
Thanks for the heads up.

DHL is much cheaper because their service is that way. I deal with them quite often at my job and the amount of damaged and "lost" packages that we get here are substantial. You get what you pay for. Just my $.02

sure no problem, high shipping makes a lot shy away, no need to miss out on some great looking equipment from a trusted seller
