I'm parting out the '95 Celica, and I cannot figure out how I'm going to ship some stuff. The four headlights, for example, are put into two boxes and would cost $66 for UPS Ground or $60 through USPS. The door panels, wrapped in cardboard and bubble wrap, would cost $65 through USPS.

Yet when I buy things on eBay(like my recent purchase of heavy lowering springs), shipping was $17.

What's the best way to ship things like door panels, headlights, tail-lights, interior plastic panels, etc?

My driver's side low beam on the yellow Celica is fine. The one on the purple Celica has two small holes, but the person I'm selling them to doesn't care about those very much.

We do have a business account here at work. I should go ask the shipping department people. They're always sending out huge parts and stuff so I bet they could help me. I don't really like to talk to them though...they're really weird. tongue.gif
