Weigh and measure the box, then use the shipping calculator on the USPS web site.

Shipping is not bad, we ship coast to coast for usually $10 or less. Now if you have AMP4's, double the weight!

not true. size increases weight. i shipped a pair of xxv (size 12d) to s. windsor, ct from det with insurance, tracking # and it cost me about $17. best to check weight and round up to get a good idea of cost. and don't forget to include insurance adn tracking number.

You could've delivered them yourself, and gas wouldn't have cost you that much.

I'll say it again.... $15 coast to coast USPS priority, print the label online which gives your FREE tracking and forget about the insurance. I mail a ton of packages every week, never use insurance, and never have to. Tracking pretty much locates the packages if they ever get lost.

I'll never ship anything without insurance. What's the extra 2 bucks to get the money back if the product is lost?

Does hockey gear never get lost in the mail? That's a legit question, not a smart ass one, I haven't traded, bought or sold hockey gear with a person on this site. I trade softball gear on a site and everyone uses insurance to cover themselves.

UPS gives automatic $100 insurance.

Plus, if you ship UPS to business address, it's cheaper than residential

Why is this?

Sometimes when I'm ordering something online, it asks me to click business or residential.

Why does it matter and what happens if I get choose the cheaper business option when I'm really getting it sent to a residence?

[jimmy 194]

Because it's easier to deliver to a business, they are open and someone is always there to receive the pkg. For residential, the UPS driver may have to come back a second time because no one was home. I'm not sure if you could select business for a house, I think they prob know it's not.

I just sent a pair of One95's to Pt Roberts, Washington from here which is about as far as one can ship coast to coast, cost $9.66 UPS. We ran the cost for Pri mail, that was $17
