I'm selling GECE pixel strands. They weigh about 4 pounds per strand. I've been asked for quotes for 5, 10 or more strands. I don't typically sell and ship things out of my immediate area. I was shocked when I plugged weight and dimensions for 10 strands into the UPS online calculator for ground shipping - almost $100. I thought I must have made a mistake, so went to the local UPS store and asked - and got the same answer.
How do folks here ship heavy packages? It could take 1-2 weeks in transit at this point and it would be acceptable. $10 shipping/strand is not acceptable. When in the UPS store I asked about shipping as freight and was told that was only possible for much larger & heavier items.
Any ideas - how do you ship? Thanks.
