Well I have to ship some sideskirts to california, ups quoted me a price then when I went to ship them it was $80 more. I'm just wondering if there is any places out there people have used that isn't super expensive, I gotta ship em soon the kid probably thinks I'm scammin him but I just can't see paying $130 to ship something that isn't really that large or heavy.

shipping $ mainly depends on weight and dimension (i'm the shipping manager for my company) and whether u get discounted rates or not.

What are the approximate dimensions and weight of the skirts, I can see if I have a long/thin box up here that I can use to get a quote of UPS.com or FEdex.com. PM Me.

Lots of times u get nailed with a surcharge if the box dimensions are over 4' long or something --which your skirts might be.

But I would guesstimate, a 4'x2'x2' package of 40lbs going ground to Cali would probabyl be $40-60 range.

Yeah that's what I hear also, and 40 to 60 is acceptable to me and they weigh maybe 20 lbs
