Selling Clubs Through eBay? Shipping?

[seanoando]

Hey guys, I’ve recently been going through my garage and selling all my clubs that I didn’t want on eBay. I sold 2 clubs earlier this week and the UPS store charged me $200 for the CHEAPEST shipping option. Surely there is a cheaper way. I can get my own boxes, how do I go from here??

Yikes! I always use USPS Priority Mail. Shipping is paid for by the purchaser in eBay if you specify this option when you set up the auction. eBay quotes the shipping based on that option and charges them. You can specify the exact dimensions of the box and weight to get a more accurate price. Remember, the buyer pays for the shipping when you do it this way.
 

After the sale, you buy a USPS shipping label right from eBay and put it on the box then take it to the post office. I find it very easy. Plus eBay is pretty good at estimating the weight and box size.

I know a lot of people who use Pirate Ship, although I have no personal experience with them.

Please refer to @boogielicious post. He’s 100% correct. And for the love of Pete! $200?

Wow that sounds like something isn’t right, I sold a golf bag on eBay and it was $50
