I have 6 traps I'm thinking about selling, and was wandering if you guys could tell me what the cost might be for shipping them. I have pretty much went strictly to mb550s, but I have several no BS extreme jrs I use. I have 6 traps that are all new except one of the Jake traps has been used. They are two MB 650 never used, two brand new K9 extremes, and two Ja [Linked Image]
ke traps one new and one used.

Use flat rate USPS boxes.

Those are some big and heavy traps but I think if you nest them together you can get them into a large flat rate box and ship through the USPS for $21.90 anywhere in the USA.

The thing is when you charge shipping add a couple dollars, (the cost of a roll of packing tape) because you need to use most all of it if your shipping traps in those boxes. I literally put 3 layers of tape over the entire box. They throw things around and beat them up so bad, it'll split the box open if you don't. Just leave barely enough box showing so they can see its a USPS Flat rate box.

Yeah a flat rate box will benefit you and the seller.

Do you want my address?
