Quick question. How do you ship them for only $15? I paid four times that to send mine to PMB.
I seem to constantly be getting screwed on shipping. Even though I cross shop UPS and USPS all the time.

I did not see a single box that could fit all four calipers in.
With buying two boxes and paying the $15 per box...It was pushing $45.

Maybe there were larger boxes available, but I had already spent an hour bagging and double boxing them....So I spent the money.

I use a medium size usps flat rate box - $15 I don’t double box cores. I just pack them in and tape the hell out of the box. Works for me. I use a FedEx acct to ship large items and commercial trucks for engines, trans and cars.

Go on the USPS website and look for the regional rate (A & B) boxes. You can not get them at the post office, you must order them on line, they are free. Rates are cheaper than regular priority mail boxes for packages over 2# You will still have to send two sperate boxes, but cheaper that sending a larger box holding all 4 calipers.

Also print your shipping labels on line from the USPS website as you do get a little discount for doing that.

On that regional A & B rate. Will those ship to the same destinations, just like the other priority mail boxes do??

Also, are they the same as the flat rate boxes?
