SDNAH2OSKIER Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I am buying a couple of skis off of SIA and wondered if someone who has shipped a ski before can chime in on how much these things weigh and what dimensions the box will be and who best to ship with????? Both are going cross country. Thanks, Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller The_MS Posted July 2, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 2, 2012 Fed ex ground. 3-5 days and about 35-55. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Garn Posted July 2, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 2, 2012 US Post Office. Definitely the cheapest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller scuppers Posted July 2, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 2, 2012 We ship hundreds of packages a day. Yes the USPS is the cheapest. I would send it UPS ground and insure it for the value. Probably would not use Fedx ground. They use independent contractors for delivery of ground packages. (even though they are in Fedx logo'ed trucks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotton Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 On 5/14/12 I shipped a 69" F1 ski from Madison, MS to Goshen IN via FedEx ground for $26.69. I furnished my own box ( approximately 72" x 6") and the weight was 12 pounds. The Buyer received it two days later on 5/16. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
