No I haven't but I might be interested. Also I'm afraid to click links.

Please respond on this forum as soon as possible...

I'm sure i will never hear back from this person who just signed up today, and I'm also not really interested.

If you ship within the lower 48 UPS seems the best deal.
If you send to Alaska UPS is way high. USPS is better.
When you compare online you can't help but run into clicktrans.
However the UPS store is right around the corner everywhere, and I never needed a scheduled pickup. So thanks for the ad. EBay's shipping calculator is pretty accurate, usually within a couple bucks. Always round up the dimensions, and add for packing materials.

Standing on a bathroom scale with a box on my head is my method. As shown by every safari movie ever made. :lol:

2 weeks ago I shipped my kite with https://clicktrans.de/ - transport was quick and easy and there are good prices as well.

Both users remanded to PKF for moderation due to possible shilling (commercial posting under multiple userids from the same signup ip address).

On a personal note regarding this and similar threads....
