    Shipping Items Sold on BBC

    What is the best method of shipping a reel (1) if you sell them on here? USPS Priority Mail Medium box looks right, but dang $11!!

    How do you all do it?

    We pay the eleven bucks.

    Use your own box it's cheaper than the flat rate boxes.

    That does sound kind of high. A box the size of a reel with a little padding, + insurance shouldn't be more that $6 sent Priority Mail I would think.

    Flat rate is only a deal for heavy items. other wise it is not. as everyone else said, use your own box, if its less than a pound it can ship first class for even cheaper and the same speed.
